Kindergarten Information

• Your students are becoming independent writers! Their writing is becoming more and more legible as their invented spelling and conventional spelling improves, as they remember to include finger spaces between their words and as they show complete sentences with uppercase letters and punctuation at the end. You can extend your child’s learning in writing at home. Here are a few suggestions:
  • Have them help you write your grocery list (and cross things off as you shop!)
  • Leave them notes and have them write you back (E.g. Have a great day! or Please clean your room. or Did you remember to brush your teeth?)
  • Write a letter to a cousin, aunt, uncle, or other family member that they don’t live with and send it in the mail or via email
• In addition to our exciting units of study for the end of the year, there are also many important assessments for reading, writing and math happening in both May and June. Because of this, attendance in the last two months of school is as important as always.
• Kindly keep toys, jewelry, rhinestones, stickers and other distracting items at HOME.
• School begins at 8:10 sharp and breakfast is served in the cafeteria at 7:40. Please make sure your child is in the cafeteria before 8am so they have enough time to eat.
