From Mrs. Wimmer's class

"We love our student council helpers! We benefit each other so much. Kindergartners are learning and growing our knowledge while council members are learning responsibility, thoughtfulness, and organizational skills! We are so lucky to teach and learn from each other!"

Mrs. Miller's class has been learning about places and people in our community. Each student got to create a different building for our community we created. We talked about what happens in each place and who might work there or live there. 

They did such a good job!
