We began our Friday morning with a great read aloud by @MsJiamachello. We loved learning all about the history of the color, Blue!

These @BurleySchool Kindergarten mathematicians played Attribute Spinner today! They thought about size, color, and shape as they worked to identify these 2-D figures with a partner. #joyofburley
