It is so hard for me to believe that this is our last week in our kindergarten classroom together! Please know that I am so very proud of how much the children have grown ~ socially & academically ~ since the beginning of the school year. Most are taller and are missing a couple of teeth! Some have longer hair. Some have shorter hair. They have simply lost that 'preschool baby' look about them. They are all reading, writing, exploring, & doing tons of math each day. These kids are absolutely more confident and are so ready to rock First Grade!
A special thank you to all of our families who have supported us throughout the school year. You have helped your child complete monthly family projects, reading logs, Halloween activities, & Gingerbread Houses. You have helped them in celebrating birthdays, the 50th Day of School, the 100th Day of School, Valentine's Day, Dinosaur Exhibits, Kindergarten Graduation, Field Day, & so much more!
Thank you for everything you have done this year to help make our school year fantastic. I wish you all a safe, healthy, and fun summer with your families and friends!
Sincerely,
Eileen Browne :)

June 8th
Wow! We are truly getting into the final stretch of our school year. We still have many fun activities planned to help us learn, play, and grow each day.
Our graduation t-shirts are here! Please check your child's backpack on Monday for his/her t-shirt. The children should wear their t-shirts to school on Friday (for Kindergarten Graduation) and the following Friday (for Field Day). The children are very excited to sing some songs and share some treats with family and friends. Please send back the pink note if you haven't already done so. It helps us with planning and setting up seating for Friday's celebration.
On Tuesday we will be starting our Kindergarten Countdown to the end of the year. We will have fun counting the last 12 days of school. Each letter in the word KINDERGARTEN will represent an activity for the day. A copy of the activities for this countdown will be sent home on Monday. Tuesday is the first day of our countdown. It will be Kday, which will be Kindness Day. We will be showing kindness to our 5th grade buddies by making them thank you cards for a great year! Most of these activities will be done during the school day. You do not need to worry about sending anything in from home, but we wanted you to be aware of our countdown. Be sure to ask your child all about it!
Throughout the remainder of the school year we will wrap up our unit on oceans and sea creatures. We will learn a little bit about the rainforest. We will also continue to practice our Heart Words as we read and write each day. During math we are working on sorting objects and identifying different types of shapes and patterns. The end of the school year is approaching, but we are still learning each day!
Thank you for all of your support. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Eileen Browne :)
PS... As the weather gets warmer, please feel free to send in a water bottle with your child each day. The children may keep their water bottles at their tables. Please fill all bottles with water only. Thank you!
