Our kindergartners are learning the 'sh' blend this week, pretending to work at a flower shop and even got to visit a local SHop... @Weeping Willow Florist!
"We had an amazing trip to Weeping Willow Florist this morning! We learned all about flowers, plants, and so much more! A huge thank you to owner, Connie as well as Karen, Renee, and Lucy for showing us the shop. We loved it and were so thankful and surprised to each be gifted a rose!" -Mrs. Aeschliman & Mrs. Hoffmire 🌹
