Kindness and caring are contagious! These two ECC students overheard Nurse Anna and I talking about the spilled water on one of our footstools and our concern that kids could fall and get hurt. They independently grabbed some paper towels and dried it up. Amazing! They were rewarded by choosing a prize from the prize box. Great job boys! We are proud of you.

Oh what fun we had at the ECC today! It was wear GREEN day, which happens to be Miss Cindy's favorite color. She smiled all day long and told us how amazing we looked. We listened to stories, used our imagination, danced and played with our friends. We found little green footprints in our classrooms and around the school. We searched for the mystical leprechaun. We set up leprechaun traps. He was good at hiding, because we never did find him. The fun energy was contagious! What a day!

Pre-k students in Miss Michele's classroom have been learning the Zones of Regulation. The Zones teach us how to identify emotions. Miss Michele is piloting this new program with her classroom. Students in the photo are using color coded paddles to identify emotions. Great job Miss Michele's class!
