Thanks so much...

I just want to send out a special thanks to Dena Fornwald, Cheyenne Walton, Steven Lundak, Renee Thorson, and Michelle Hanson for helping out with the Holiday Party on Tuesday, December 21st.  The party was a huge success.  Students made ornaments with their pictures in it, decorated/iced snowman cookies, played snowman letter sound Bingo, made number writing books, played pin the carrot nose on the snowman, colored, and more.  I hope everyone has a wonderful winter break.  I will see everyone back at school on January 3rd, 2011.

Kindergarten Super Reader Night - Tuesday, December 14th, 2010 (5:30-7:00 pm)

If you plan to attend, here is what will be happening:

*We will meet in K-103 (Mrs. Leach’s room) and go over the agenda for the night.  We will spend approximately 15 minutes talking about what reading and math gold standards your child is working on in school.  Then you will be free to visit each classroom and complete the activity.

Book Swap:

-Please bring gently used books to swap with other families.  For every book you bring you will be able to pick out a different book to bring home.

Don’t forget to come dressed as your favorite super hero.
