Leveled Books
PLEASE PLEASE try and help your child remember to return their leveled bag of books to school every Friday. I try and get them all ready to send home on Monday and when I am missing a bunch it really slows down my system and makes things more complicated.
These books go home every Monday and should be returned every Friday. Please take and read them a few nights a week with your child. They love reading them with me in class and I know that they would love to show off their reading to you too!!
Sight Words (or SNAP words)
Please continue to work on learning all the yellow and blue words!!
Library Day is Every wednesday!!
Please help make sure your child is bringing their book back each week to exchange for a new one!
Shoes
Kindergarten teachers are asking that you please work with your child on learning how to tie their shoes if they are wearing shoes with laces to school. This is a HUGE help to us!!! Please see the video below if you would like to use it to help your child learn. Thank you!!!

We are all good at this time. :)
Family Friday Lunch-- NEW CHANGES THIS YEAR!!!
Click the Link Below to Sign Up to come to our first family Friday lunch on September 6th. Family Friday lunch is when you get to eat with your child in the cafeteria during our lunch time from 10:15-10:45am. The office is asking that you sign up BEFORE Friday so you have a visitor badge printed and it won't take as long to get parents in the building. PLEASE make sure you do the sign up if you plan on attending lunch with your child.
