🌙🦇 Happy International Bat Week! 🦇🌙 The 4th Grade KEEP classes in Franklin School are diving deep into the world of bats through the lens of #DepthandComplexity! Mrs. Cristalli and Mrs. Kyak explored key themes in Stellaluna with students, analyzed adaptations and habitats, and learned about conservation. From identifying “nocturnal” and “echolocation” to reflecting on bats' roles in our ecosystems, we’re using Depth and Complexity Icons to bring this topic to life! 🌎✨
Today, we salute the courage, dedication, and sacrifice of our veterans. Thank you to all who have served our country, from the Kearny School District.
Kearny High School’s ceramics class collaborated with Franklin Preschool classes for the second year in a row. Preschoolers in Ms. Murray, Ms. Bauer, and Ms. Kearns' classes drew monster designs, which Ms. Donnelly’s ceramics students brought to life in clay. On October 30th, high schoolers delivered each preschooler’s monster and read How to Catch a Monster. Mrs. Astrella and Ms. Donnelly led a fun sticker monster activity, and preschoolers enjoyed a gallery walk before taking their clay monsters home!
As we get ready for Election Day, the Pre-K students at Franklin read “Duck For President” and voted!🗳️ Each student received a ballot to vote for Duck🦆 or Farmer Brown👨🌾. On Friday, we will count all the votes from all the preschool classes and see who wins!🏆
The Kearny School District wishes everyone celebrating Diwali a joyous and meaningful holiday, filled with light, love, and prosperity.
