Mrs. Dare's first grade went on a field trip to Plum Creek. Students had a fun time being centipedes, spiders, and opossums. They took a moment to listen to all the wonderful sounds on our nature walk. Students rolled down a big hill after lunch and got to meet Bluey, a blue tongued skink all the way from Australia!
Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Mokena 159!
