In the Swing of Things

Thank you for all your at home support thus far in the school year.  I know that the transition from summer to school can be a difficult one, especially in kindergarten.  I feel like we are starting to fall into the swing of things in the classroom.  I hope the same is true for at home times.

I have just a few reminder:

Please remember to check you child's folder each night and empty out the graded papers and announcements.  It is extremely beneficial for you to review the graded papers with your child nightly/weekly.  This allows you to talk to them about what they are learning in school and see what is a struggle for them.

If you are sending in lunch/snack money please put it in an envelope with your child's first and last name.  Thanks :)

I know the students were excited to have P.E. for the first time this week.  Please remember to have your child wear tennis/athletic shoes on Tuesday and Thursday.  If they are wearing flip flops or sandals they will not be able to participate.

Throughout the week I have noticed that many students are struggling to write their first name.  We have been practicing this quite a bit in the classroom.  I will be sending home some name writing homework early next week.  Please take a few minutes to have your child practice their first name nightly.
