Science at CCA is a Blast!









Mrs. Allen's kindergarten class had the best time learning all about bubbles in Science class this week. Bubbles were flying everywhere as they investigated the evidence of wind and air in our atmosphere. They had hands-on experience on how their lungs work and how to spot evidence of oxygen both inside and outside the bubbles. It was FUN!




It's Snowing in Mrs. Cark's Kindergarten Class!









Students in Mrs. Clark's kindergarten class had a great time pretending it was snowing in Fort Lauderdale last week! They played outside in their mittens and scarves, and had hot chocolate and smores at the picnic tables, and then returned to the classroom to read a book about snowmen, and to create an edible snowman out of sugar donuts and pretzel sticks. Each student created and decorated a paper snowman at home with their families, and brought them in to display in the classroom. Stop by the kindergarten classrooms sometime to see the wonderful snowmen hanging around!

There was lots of excitement in pre-k yesterday, as students "forgot" to get dressed for school! Mrs. Ellis's three day class enjoyed the day in their pajamas.
