Holmes Kindergarteners had the opportunity to complete a Women's History Month project in their first week of E-Learning! We learned so much! #weared97 #Holmeshawks #Op97

K students were asked to write their own poem to the tune of our “We are Gathering” song.... this one really spoke to us😂 #holmeshawks #weared97 #oakpark97

Last week our Holmes Kinders continued to grow their brains with a plant theme full of art, science, and even some weeding! #holmeshawks #op97 #weared97

After reading “If the Dinosaurs Came Back” our Holmes Kinders recreated their own pages of the book! We were so happy that this project could be recreated at home! #holmeshawks #op97 #weared97

WELCOME KINDERGARTENERS! We are so excited to get to know you!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for such an interactive lesson @msbennett0

Holmes Kinders started their Kevin Henkes author study this week! These books provide so many opportunities to identify characters, setting, and events! 🐭🐭🐭

Holmes Kinders worked hard this week to make their alphabet chart even better.... although cauliflower is a questionable choice! #Holmeshawks #Oakpark97

Thanks to our assembly leaders and @AP_Parisa for an awesome assembly celebrating Native American Heritage Month! We loved the history, music, and getting the chance to draw our own Thunderbirds with a directed drawing from @ArtWithMrsRuff #holmeshawks #oakpark97

PICK UP & GIVE BACK! Holmes Kindergarteners picked up new materials today and gave back by donating food and necessities to the Oak Park Food Pantry and cards to a local nursing home! #oakpark97 #holmeshawks #weared97

We read The OK Book and talked about having a growth mindset! With our power or YET we made our own OK class books! #holmeshawks #op97

We worked to create our VERY OWN alphabet charts with all of our AMAZING letter sound knowledge!

Shout out to #holmeshawks for a great 1st day Oak Park District 97. I spent the day supporting Newcomers and working in kinder with Ms. Keuler. She never ceases to amaze me with her expertise. Patience. Love. And joy she brings to kinder. I truly love my colleagues!

One day I'll grow up to be really excellent at something. I don't know what it is YET... But I sure am having fun figuring it out! Made our very own OK book and started learning about the power of YET! #oakpark97 #Holmeshawks
