A few reminders...



Can you believe this is the last week of school?!  Tomorrow we have water balloon day as our special event.  Please have your child bring a towel and extra clothes.  Some of the kids have extra clothes at school but not all. Apply sunscreen in the morning before school. We are going to play a bunch of different water balloon games so the kids will get wet but hopefully not too wet.  

Move along day is also tomorrow morning.  This is when students find out their 1st grade teacher. They visit their new classrooms for 30 minutes.  Be on the lookout tomorrow for a manilla envelope in your child's backpack.  It will have a letter from the new teacher, class list, and a supply list for next year. This can be exciting and a little anxiety- ridden for some.  

Wednesday is our last day of school!!!  We will end the year with a dance party!  Students will be taking home their developmental checklist.  This is the kindergarten report card.  

By any chance, can someone send me a video of the first grade song/ dance?  My video didn't record.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments!

Thank You Room Parents!




Thank You Ms. Pearlman for our new playground!
