Apple Snacks












The kindergarten class enjoyed making applesauce and apple leathers with their classroom volunteer, Grandma Brandt. The students learned to use an apple peeler/corer while making applesauce and a sieve with the apple leathers (homemade fruit roll-up). Check out the picture of the really, really, really long peel! It's still attached to the apple!

SD Highway Patrol at MVCA

Trooper Joel Peterson stopped by MVCA today to talk with the K-2nd graders about his job as a highway patrolman. Seat belt use was an important topic along with the "gadgets" found on his belt. Students also got the chance to look at his patrol car and try out the siren. Thank you Trooper Peterson for your visit!!


Learning About Firefighters
























The K-2 students got a special visitor yesterday from Firefighter Terry Nickels from the Yankton Volunteer Fire Department. He talked to the kids about fire safety and to always remember that firefighters are here to help people. Thanks Terry for visiting MVCA!
