Friday we had some fun with special visitors at Hillcrest!
🎸Mr. Ebener rocked out a concert for our 2nd Graders!
📕Abbey Breckling came from Chicago to read the first book in her series Charlie's Anatomical Adventures! The Heart to 3rd and 4th graders.
"Through the adventures of “Charlie” (a relatable, curious character), children are introduced to various body systems, organs, and functions in a way that’s fun, imaginative, and age-appropriate." You can order here! https://charliesanatomicaladventures.com/cart/
📖Ms. Catalina from East Moline Public Library did storytime in English and Spanish to the Kindergarten and 1st Graders!
