Here we are, starting our last few weeks of kindergarten.  There are many things going on this month.  Please keep looking for posts as we will be sharing a lot of information.  Below is a look at some important dates this month.

Friday, May 1st – Music Sharing Day – We have been learning about Teamwork and are looking this week at many different ways people work together to create music.  If you have an instrument at home that your child could share with us, please send it in on Friday.  It can be a real instrument or a toy one (and small enough to carry to school).

Monday, May 25th – Holiday – No School

Thursday, May 28th – Movie Day – Students may bring blankets/pillows.

Friday, May 29th – Last Day of School for D Track – Promotion at 8:30 a.m. in the Multipurpose Room with reception afterwards in K3.

Reminder

Tomorrow is a minimum day.
Mrs. Young’s class will come with the morning class from 8:20-11:51.

It is also a spirit day, “Hawaiian Day”
(please no flip flops or spaghetti straps)

Good Morning Spartan Parents!

We have started reading chapter books to the students. Our hope is that when they see these chapter books in our school and local library they will want to read them as they are already familiar to them. We have also told them the reason why we have been learning the kindergarten sight words is so they can be able to read cool chapter books like the ones listed below.

So keep practicing those sight words, and Little Readers-they have made incredible progress this school year!

These are the titles we are going to try to read with the class…
