I have the most awesome group of Kindergartners this year. As I was reading a story at the end of the day I looked around at the students. It didn't even feel like the first day of school. It felt like we had always been there. I can only hope the rest of the year is as smooth!
Thank you to all the parents that signed up to help in our classroom. We will start centers around the first week of October. Watch for more info then.
Reading folders will come home next week. Remember to return them only on Mondays (or Tuesday if a school holiday falls on Monday).
Our first homework will come home tomorrow (Wednesday). Please make sure your child is using correct handwriting; including starting at the top and uppercase and lowercase letters.
Wednesday is our early-out day. School will be from 8:55-10:55 or 11:30-1:30.
PE and Music are on Thursdays. Our PE teacher would like the students to wear appropriate PE clothing and shoes.
If you haven't sent the 1 1/2" binders with the zipper pouch and sheet protectors please get those in by Friday. We will use them starting next Tuesday.
Finally, I would like to extend a heartfelt thank-you to Jen Strand for all her help getting my classroom ready. She jumped back into "teacher mode" and helped with last minute things so I could be prepared for today. She is amazing and even brought me a yummy treat the first day!
Take a look at some of our super cute first day-ers!
