Mrs. Miller's Kindergarten Class

Hello K1 Families,

I truly can’t believe that there are only 3 more days of kindergarten! 

Next Wednesday we will be having our end of the year kindergarten picnic day. The children are invited to wear fun Hawaiian/Summer Fun clothes to school. They can also bring a small towel to use as a blanket to eat on during our picnic lunch time. We will be having fun workshops including: jewelry making, ice cream sundae making, chalk and bubbles to name a few! Please have your child wear sunscreen to school and they may want to wear a hat and or sunglasses. We will be serving a hearty snack of hotdog, chips, and fruit. If your child does not want to eat this, please send lunch with them that day. Also please have your child bring a water bottle. 

Thank you to all the parents that volunteered to help with stations. In order for the day to run smoothly, we kindly ask that you stay at your station the entire time. If you want to come by and lend a hand, even if you are not signed up, please do! Thanks in advance! It will be so much fun!

Next Thursday is our last day of school. ALL KINDERGARTENERS WILL ATTEND SCHOOL 8:15-11:45. PLEASE PICK UP YOUR CHILD ON TIME. THE REST OF THE SCHOOL WILL BE GETTING OUT AT 12:00, and it will be crazy in the parking lot.

This week we continued learning about the ocean. Our focuses were on starfish, seahorses, shellfish, and sharks. We finished our ocean song book and your child is excited to be bringing it home this week! Be sure to have them sing/read it to you. I think the class favorite page is the shark page.  On Friday we made shark hats with our fourth grade buddies.

Last week your child is brought home a bundle of readers that we have worked on over the past months. Please take time to listen to them read the books and keep them to reread over the summer. They were also excited to bring home a box that contains all of the sight words we have worked on this year. Over the summer please continue to have your child read them and spell them with you.

Reminder to please return your child’s Friday bag next Tuesday so that I can begin filling it with end of the year items to go home on Thursday.

Enjoy the long weekend! - Kathy Miller
