We are off to a great start in Kindergarten!! We have been having a lot of fun getting to know each other and making new friends.  The boys and girls in KM are awesome!!!  I will post some pictures of our first few days when all the Permission to Photograph forms have been returned.   We will be busy this week learning and practicing rules and routines for school just like David in the book "David Goes to School".  Ask your child to tell you something that they can do at school.  In Kindergarten we will be kind to each other, keep our hands to ourselves, wait our turn and raise our hands.  Most of all we will have fun!   This week, we will be exploring all the letters in the alphabet.  Try singing the alphabet song! Look around your house and see what letters you can find. We will spend time working on our names.  I have a lot of fun activities for us to try.  Practice printing your name at home!    We will meet Mr. Stewart this week! He's going to talk to us about being bucket fillers!    Meet the Teacher night will take place on Thursday at 6:00 pm in the cafeteria.  Hope to see you there!   We will be going to the school library on Thursdays.  Each week, you will be allowed to sign out 1 book to take home for the week.  Remember to bring it back on Thursday in order to get a new one!   The cafeteria will open this week. Parents, if your child is ordering please send their written out order in a baggie with their name and the exact change.  Please put the order in your child's orange take home folder (not in their lunch can) to ensure that orders are not missed in the morning! Thank you.   I am enjoying getting to know all the boys and girls in KM and am looking forward to a fabulous year!
