Holidays around the corner

As the holidays come closer, DSKI parents and students have been busily preparing!

The christmas tree started empty but has slowly decorated with colorful ornaments created by the students.

The preschoolers created an elf with a photo of them.

Each of the students carefully chose a spot to hang their ornament.

We are looking forward for the christmas tree lighting event on Monday!

We will also receive the Advent Calendar, a gift from the PTA and will start counting down the days until Christmas!

Meet the Animals

Students have been actively engaged in preparing for our upcoming Animal Exhibit, showcasing their learning through research, creativity, and collaboration. Each student selected an animal of interest, explored its habitat, diet, and unique adaptations, and created a visual display to share their findings. This week the preschoolers worked in teams to group animals according to their natural habitats—such as grassland, fresh water, polar region, ocean, and forest. Together, they collaborated to research the features and designed a small-scale habitat that reflect the unique features of each ecosystem. This group project fostered teamwork, problem-solving, and creativity as students and teachers combined their knowledge and ideas to create cohesive, informative, and visually engaging designs. The final displays beautifully showcase both the diversity of animal life and the power of collaboration. As part of the preparation, preschoolers will practice presentation skills and t...
