May 18th – 21st  

We can’t believe that our year is winding down.  Here’s what’s coming up for the new week…    

·        We would all like to send a huge THANK YOU for all of the wonderful cards, flowers, candy, and gifts that you showered us with last week for Teacher Appreciation Week. We truly felt appreciated and loved. 

·        Be on the look out for two sign-up geniuses to be emailed soon.  We are planning our Hawaiian Day and the End of the Year Parties.  We will need everyone’s help to make these fun and memorable events!  THANK YOU.

·        This will be our LAST week for Homework packets to come home this school year.  Please continue to practice writing and reading daily with your child through our summer break.
 
·        Our new word wall word is “there.” We now know the following words:  I, like, see, a, is, the, can, my, and, have, go, to, has, am, look, are, saw, went, with, up, they, do, but, said, will, come, was, would, & there.

·        This week will be our final library check out for the year.  All library books are now due.

·        Calling all Dads…  PLEASE come to our FATHER’S DAY Celebration in Kindergarten Monday June 1st.  AM Kinder will have their session from 8:30-9:15 and PM Kinder will celebrate with their dads from 11:45-12:30.  We understand that this is very likely inconvenient for most of you.  If you are able to come in, please be prepared to be celebrated by more than just your own child as many of the kids will not have their own dads here to play with. We will be making paper airplanes, building with blocks, playing with Play-Doh, cars, drawing… All the fun things daddies usually like to do with their kids.  Sorry dads, no massages and nail painting at this event. 

·        Writing—During our last month of Kindergarten, we want everyone to think about all of the previous writing jobs we’ve had and try to incorporate DIFFERENT things to write about!  Our job in May is to use number words in our writing.  Our goal is to have the kids choose one topic and elaborate on it, really describing it. 

·        Important dates to remember—There are many upcoming dates to remember.  May is JAM- PACKED, full of activities and dates to remember…
