🌼 Kindergarten's "Friendship Week" was filled with so many memorable lessons and activities! They started off learning about "Stick" and "Stone", went on a friendship walk, made a friendship fruit salad craft, and friendship bracelets in Makerspace. It was a great week learning about and getting to know their amazing friends in Kindergarten!

🍎🍏 Apples here, apples there, apples EVERYWHERE! Kindergarten's apple week was fun and delicious. They completed an apple counting math activity, used their 5 senses to try red apples, green apples and yellow apples, and then learned to graph their favorites. The class wrapped up the week celebrating Johnny Appleseed's birthday & learning about who he was, all while enjoying apple muffins they made themselves!

🐴🍂 Our K, 1, & 2 students had some fall fun down on the farm yesterday! They picked pumpkins, went on wagon and pony rides, and met and learned all about tons of cute animals.
They even were introduced to Mrs. Marilyn Kelkenberg, Akron Acres co-owner and St. Mary School alumnus! Marilyn shared some fond memories of her days at SMS, and we're sure this field trip to the farm will become a wonderful memory in the minds of our current students. Thank you Marilyn!

Happy Father's Day to all of our SMS Dads, Grandpas, & Godfathers! A few weeks ago our Pre-K, Kindergarten, & 1st graders had the opportunity to celebrate their Dads with a sweet treat - donuts! We're thankful for all father figures today, & offer this prayer for them:
🙏 Heavenly Father, you entrusted your Son Jesus, the child of Mary, to the care of Joseph, his foster father. Bless all fathers & grandfathers as they care for their families. Give them strength & wisdom, tenderness & patience, give them ability to love in a way that reflects your love. Support them in the work they have to do, protecting those who look to them, as we look to you for love & salvation. Help us to love them in a way that would bring honor to You & them. Amen.

🐰🌸 🐣🪺Happy Easter from our SMS Kindergartners! Before Easter break, the class had an Easter celebration - they enjoyed a snack based on the Easter Story from the Bible, completed a fun, festive craft, & even had a surprise visit from the Easter Bunny who left them a classroom full of bright & colorful Easter eggs to hunt for! It was a hip-hoppity kind of day!

🩷🐥 🩵 Peep... peep... it's almost Easter! Our Kindergartners recently used Peeps in a science based lesson. Students chose one descriptive word to characterize the outside & inside of a Peep using their five senses. They also designed their very own Peeps & filled in an "all about me" poster using their writing skills. What a sweet day!
