Dressing for the Weather Games were so cool too!!

Bee Bots are so fun to Code and play with!

We learned about Lent and Ash Wednesday this week.

And we started collecting Good Deeds for Lent.

It was so kind of Father Jun to come speak to our class about the meaning of Lent and to give us each our ashes.

We painted our Cross Eggs so beautifully!

We loved learning snake facts too!

Ask your little zoologist to tell you what snakes use to smell!!
