Miss Jenn taught our kindergarteners a game called, “Gobble Gobble”. Students took turns turning over letter cards to identify the letter/sound, but if they got a “Gobble Gobble” card, they had to put all of their letter cards back. The anticipation towards the end was so cute!

Veterans—Thank you so much for your service and sacrifices to protect our freedom! ❤️🤍💙
