The kindergarten class is part way through their kindergarten countdown. Today was "Art Day". So this morning we went on a field trip to the Goodyear Sculpture Studio on Dickinson's campus. We looked at some art and sculptures and then we were able to make our bird houses!
We followed the steps to glue and hammer our houses together and then we designed and colored a paper bird house so when we come back tomorrow we will paint our bird houses.
We had such a great time and cannot wait to go back tomorrow to finish everything up!
