💘 Happy Valentine’s Day, BHASD!

PreK Price have been working on The Clothing Study. We have had lots of fun with our investigations and used our new technology to learn more. We used “Exploview” microscopes to investigate what fabric fibers look like when they are magnified. We read The Paper Bag Princess and worked on creating our own paper bag puppets. We read The Patchwork Prince by Jean Baptiste and painted our own patchwork pictures. We read Abelula’s Weave and learned about weaving, sewing, and lacing, creating our weaving projects using handmade looms. We listened to various stories and used puppets and pictures to retell them to each other. Our favorite story was Mrs. McNosh Hangs Up Her Wash. We read A Button for Corduroy and Pete the Cat and his Four Groovy Buttons and used math skills to count and sort buttons. We created our own fashion designs using fashion plates and we discussed what clothing to wear for the weather using Weather Bear to practice on. We discussed what clothing our community helpers wear for their job that help to keep them safe and clean. We are planning to celebrate our learning by tie-dying t-shirts and decorating homemade vests.

📖 A special library experience!
Last week, our Life Skills students enjoyed their very own adapted library time with Mrs. Peters. From engaging stories to creative activities, it was a wonderful way to bring books to life! 💙


The Bullet Academy children listened to "Click, Clack, Moo, I Love You" and made a heart-shaped craft during today's Play and Learn. Happy Valentine's Day!

📚✨ World Read Aloud Day was a success! Our Elementary and Intermediate students teamed up across grade levels to share their love of reading. 📖💙
Students picked their favorite books and read them to a partner from another grade—because stories are even better when shared! What a great way to celebrate the power of reading together! 📚🎉
