Sharing:  Please be on the lookout for a special sharing project coming home on Monday and due on Friday.  We are all getting to know each other and this fun activity will help!  Beginning in September we will have weekly sharing with one group sharing each week. The sharing topics are all here on this website under the "more" tab!

We had a great first week in Room K!  The children are quickly becoming friends and having fun playing on the playground, working in learning centers and singing on the carpet and of course, learning the 3 B's:  be safe, be respectful, and be responsible.

*All children must have their binder by Monday!  We use these binders to hold our Letter People pages, which we will begin soon.  If you are not sure I received your child's materials, please check with me Monday morning.

*Check your child's Book Buddy and folder every day.  We send home homework and important papers in these folders.  All children must bring their folder in their Book Buddy every day.

*Please help your child return all homework and signed papers when they are due.

Thank you for all of your interest, help and support!

Volunteer Opportunities

Classroom Volunteers may start in one week.  Please be sure to have your TB test paperwork on file in the office so you can volunteer, it really helps create a smaller ratio for the children and give them more individual attention.

It is so wonderful getting to know our new Room K families!
Best wishes,
Mrs. Weisberg
