At A Day in the Upper Grade, the parents had the chance to observe what their kids would be doing as they moved to the upper grade in the coming school year.<\/p>\n<p>We started Yoga for Kids with Mrs. Zeynep Akman every Wednesday afternoon. Our little yogis showed great interest in this new experience. By practicing yoga poses, children can learn how to exercise, develop confidence, and concentrate better.<\/p>\n<p>On the last day of March, we had our traditional Egg Hunt at the school garden. It was so much fun to find the eggs filled with M&amp;Ms hidden<br \/>\nby the Easter Bunny.<\/p>\n<p>ANNOUNCEMENTS:<br \/>\n\uf0f0 April 20: International Costume Parade.
