Star Parents,
We have had a fun filled week in Kindergarten! The children loved starting Big Centers this week! Be sure to ask your child what he/she likes best about Big Centers.
Important Information
Red Folders:
- Please continue to look at your child's Red Folder every night. We really appreciate you removing your child's papers and sending their folder back to school every day.
Homework:
- Please look for your child's homework in their Red Folder on Mondays and Wednesdays. We will be having math homework on Mondays and word work homework on Wednesdays. It will be on colored paper. Thank you so much for helping your child with their homework.
Snacks:
- Please continue to send in a healthy snack and water bottle each day. Please keep in mind that our children will be working while eating their snack, so please do not send in anything messy or something that needs a utensil. Please remember to not send in any snacks and or items containing tree nuts or peanuts. Thank you for helping keep our children with food allergies safe and healthy.

We are looking for volunteers who can come help set up on Friday, August 31st from 8:00-9:00 a.m. If you are interested, please email your classroom teacher.
