Time to VOTE!
The kindergarteners learned about voting this week. We were curious what it would be like to vote, so we set up a voting booth and voted for our favorite animal.
When the votes were tallied rabbit was the clear winner. Coming up just 2 votes short was cat, then dog and monkey received no votes.
