Mrs. Lamparter's Class
August 8, 2014
Specials for the Week of August 11th- 15th
P.E. will be on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday next week. Please wear tennis shoes.
We have had a GREAT first week of school! I am SO proud of my kindergartners. They have made great adjustments to their new routines. It's SO hard to listen to ALL the rules over and over again. We are really working hard on being good listeners so we can follow directions. We have a "compliment" jar which we fill with candy every time we receive a compliment. We also earn fish sticks when we are "Caught Being Good"! After curriculum night, a Weekly Progress sheet will be sent
home daily. Your children are precious. Thank you for sharing them with Mrs. Hanagriff and me.
