Grandview kindergarten students had an interactive experience learning about the seasons and how trees change throughout them today. Mrs. Bright read "Tap the Magic Tree" while students shared their magic to make the leaves, buds, flowers, and apples appear, then shook, clapped, knocked and blew to help them fall off as the seasons changed. Special shout-out to retired teacher Jim Shum for returning to play the important role of Tree. #PartOfThePride
