Pajama Day in kindergarten!


This Week @ CES


It was a day of hands-on-learning in First Grade! We measured classroom objects with centimeter cubes and sticks which helped us practice not only measuring, but also counting by tens and ones.
We then pretended like we were birds learning how beaks have different jobs.











Calhoun hosted Goodies with Grown Ups on Monday in conjunction with the first day of shopping at Book Fair! Thank you, all, for supporting all things Calhoun!







Tomorrow is picture day. Please remember to avoid wearing green
