Specials for the Week of August 18th- 22nd
This week has been busy in kindergarten and we have been practicing all our routines. A weekly progress sheet came home in their folders this week. We continue to "catch students being good!" We also started our clip chart behavior system and I am so proud of the many students who show me they are "Ready To Learn". Please reinforce making good choices at home.
Students are bringing home their Poetry Anthology today. Please read with your child, sign the envelope, and return BOTH their book and envelope on Monday.
I was so excited to see so many parents at curriculum night. Thank you for all your support. We are going to have a GREAT year.
