Important Notes:
On Wednesday, we cut out various shapes from our Eric Carle paper and created a mural for our hallway to enjoy the last few days of school. It is a wonderful garden/pond scene complete with flowers, a pond, insects, and frogs. It is adorable!
Graduation went WONDERFULLY! I hope you all enjoyed! The students did great singing and showcasing their learning! The power point can be found at this link:
- We have a 4 day schedule for the last week. We have school Monday-Thursday. AM: 7:50-10:55, PM: 11:55-3:00
- NO EXTENDED DAY WILL BE OFFERED ON WEDNESDAY JUNE 5 OR THURSDAY JUNE 6.
- Our last day of school is Thursday June 6, 2014. We will have both the AM and PM sessions that day.
- Report Cards will be coming home with the students on the last day (extended day students, please let me know what day will be your last so I can get your report card out on the right day).
- Lost and Found. Our lost and found is growing. If you are missing something please feel free to check out the box on top of the lockers by our door, or email me and I will take a look for you!
- SCHOOL DRESS CODE:
- STUDENTS HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE MOVING ABOUT THE PLAYGROUND IN SANDALS. THOUGH THEY ARE ALLOWED AT SCHOOL IF THEY HAVE A BACK STRAP, STUDENTS MOVE MUCH MORE FREELY ON THE PLAYGROUND (it is covered in pea gravel that gets stuck in shoes) IF THEY BRING TENNIS SHOES TO PUT ON WHILE PLAYING.
- Warm weather clothing: We do not have a specific policy regarding when students can wear shorts. Please
watch the weather and dress in layers. It is normally cooler in the morning in the building and at recess.
Our specific rules say:
• All shoes MUST have backstraps. NO flip flops or other sandals without backstrap.
• Tennis shoes must be worn for recesses and Gym class.
• Tank top straps must be at least one inch wide.
• Shorts must be longer and no less than one hand-width above the knee.
Holy Cow, this week went fast!
We worked on an Eric Carle Unit this week.
On Tuesday, we all got to decorate a page however we wanted. Many enjoyed finger painting, some enjoyed using popsicle sticks, crumpled up paper, tissues, and mixing colors.

Students will be helping organize and sort the room, having lots of outside time, and good bye fun. We will be reading books about "Getting Ready for Kindergarten" and graduation. I work to prepare the students for the fact that I have taught them all I can, they are big kids who have learned all they can in 4k, and they are ready for kindergarten.
Kindergarten anxiety can be tough and you may experience some situations you thought they had already overcome, setbacks, and more. Though EVERY CHILD REACT DIFFERENTLY, and it may be a little different if they have indeed had the 4k experience, I wanted to provide you with a couple of articles to help with kindergarten anxiety:
