Kindergarten Blog September 28th, 2016

The kindergartner's first month at BPC is almost over  and we have already had many triumphs in the classroom! It is great to see your children making their first learning discoveries, finding their first kindergarten friends, and overcoming any initial social challenges. It can be difficult to navigate the expectations of the many bright, caring adults they see every day, but our kindergartners are making their way gracefully through the weekly routine and learning so much along the way.

We have a lot of opportunity for interdisciplinary collaboration at BPC. In science, with Dr. Lauren, the K's have been discussing the five senses, and specifically, discussing how the sense of touch can help one to navigate their surroundings. Then with Miss Fryke, our Gardening Specialist, the K's used their senses to navigate the garden while participating in a scavenger hunt. We filled our noses with smells,  looked for insects, felt interesting plants, listened for garden sounds, and tasted sweet tomatoes.
