Monday, February 20th - Dental Health Presentation
Thank you to Dr. Kasia Lindhorst D.D.S. M.S. P.A. (Christoph and Lukas' Mom) and her amazing, wonderful dental assistant, Ms. Yvette, for doing her annual presentation for the 3-4 and Pre-K children. We learned about how to properly care for our teeth, how to brush and floss and Ms. Yvette also talked about what types of foods are best for our teeth and to stick to candy and juice for only special occasions. We especially enjoyed the part where the sugar bug demonstrates how to spit your toothpaste into the sink, after you brush.
Some of us were sitting in the "wet zone".

Wednesday, February 22nd- CDC Mardi Gras Parade
The Pre-K and 3-4 Classes marched and threw beads to the younger children, while Mr. Marcos Melchor played traditional Mardi Gras parade music for us on the saxophone. Some classes celebrated Mardi Gras further, by learning the significance of the traditional colors of Green, Gold and Purple, creating Mardi Gras inspired artwork and tasting king cake.
(See Pre-K's group artwork below)
