We finished a very busy first week of school. I think we were all glad when Friday came and it was a little cooler!
The newsletter from Friday and the September Homework calendar have been added to the website. Paper copies of the homework calendar will be sen home on Monday.
The children will still wear their nametags next week--I have MOST of the fifty names learned, but I want to make sure :)
Was your child tired last week?
I am really looking forward to getting this year started!
It was great to meet so many families at the "Meet & Greet" last week. It looks like a great bunch of new kinders coming to school this year!
Hurry up Wednesday....
My daughter had her first day of swim practice today for the high school season, so for us, summer is 99% over. She is a senior, and probably will be a captain, so she really needs to not miss any days.
As you finish up your summer activities, try to start developing a regular sleep schedule (I know....), and help your child practice writing their name. Come visit the building and peek in the windows--nothing is done in our room yet, but at least it will be a familiar place on the first day of school.
I just got my classlists and I am so excited! Lots of new little friends to meet, several siblings that I have known since they were little-little, so much potential and possibilities.
We will be having our "Meet and Greet" on Wednesday, August 29 from 6:00-7:30 in the evening--hopefully I will see yo then!
We started our unit "My Earth" a couple of weeks ago and planted bean and pumpkin seeds in three different 'earth materials'. Soil. Pebbles. Sand. For two days nothing happened--just kinders watering faithfully and claiming that "their" seed was growing. Then we got or first sprout. In the sand. Things are not going as they are supposed to....
I spent the day in meetings with other kindergarten teachers. After talking with them, I am very grateful for all of the children in my classes this year.
Polite.
Hard working.
Funny.
Thank you, Parents!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The children have been working with Miss Cardillo to write stories as a group during our Language Arts time. After they wrote the stories, the learned about beginning, middle and end. They illustrated their work amd hung it in the hallway. Click here to read their stories!
