Hello Room 4 families,
What a week! Thanks to everyone who came to Open House on Wednesday. We had a fantastic turn out, and the kids LOVED showing off their classroom and their work.
Here is what we have coming up:
Important Dates
Tuesday, June 3: Kinder sports day 8:30-10:00. Please be sure to send your child in athletic shoes and socks and to apply sunscreen. We will be outside this whole time!
MOnday, June 9: Staff vs. 6th graders kickball game; 8:30 am on the baseball fields. If there are any parents who would like to sit with the class during this time, please let me know!
Tuesday, June 10: Kinder play day, 9-12; baseball fields. Thanks to everyone who has signed up to help that day. We still need some volunteers--check out the sign up poster in the kinder yard.
Thursday, June 12: Last day of school. Dismissal will be at 12:20 from the cafeteria.
Language Arts
Your children have learned so much! We have worked our way through kindergarten and many first grade standards. This week we continue to work on reading and spelling more complex words. Please continue to have your child read for at least 20 minutes every day. This is so important, especially as we move into summer.
This week we are writing kindergarten memory books and letters to Mrs. Egan and our 5th grade buddies.
Math
This week we will begin looking ahead at some of the 1st grade skills. I encourage kids to continue to practice math facts at home. Most of them love this!
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!
Have a fantstic weekend!

Thank you to those families who have already volunteered to help and/or sent in items.

props or simple dress-up items like sunglasses, boas, hats for a photo area
Also, if you have an "EZ UP" tent for shade, we would love to have a few of those.
