http://dikenewellprek.blogspot.com/2016/04/collaboration-with-kelt.html
Tools of the Mind. Friday, April 8, 2016. Dear Pre-K Families,. We were visited this week by naturalist, Becky Kolak, from the Kennebec Estuary Land Trust. She talked with us about local birds and the attributes of their beaks and feet. She'll be back twice more, once for a follow up chat and bird craft, and then in May, she will take our class on a field trip to one of the local land trusts, paid for by KELT. The kids were totally engaged in what she had to say . Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tools of the Mind. Tuesday, March 15, 2016. Arghhh. All of our picture slideshows have gone dark! I'm working on this with our technology department.

I am unable to explain their reappearance from my end. We'll take it though. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pets and Vets Theme. Http:/ www.dns.rsu1.org. Tools of the Mind.

Tools of the Mind. Friday, June 3, 2016. We had a great visit from Mr. Kidwell yesterday. He talked with our class about backpacking and showed us some very cool equipment. He let us touch all the stuff with gentle hands, and even lent us the water filter pump to play with in our fishing center. The kids all piled into the tent for this quick photo shot.
