Signs of Spring and Community Building

Dear Mom and Dad:

AM class: Have you noticed the different signs of spring? Ask me to tell you some of the things I have noticed. Today we drew in our visual journals 4 different signs of spring. I had to draw a detailed picture and label my drawing.

PM class: Today we worked with Mrs. Southworth and Mrs. Quilley. We are working on community building skills. These skills are so important as we make the connections outside of kindergarten. We played some games that helped me learn to take turns and be respectful of others while they are sharing. We also learned a lot about one another.  

Question of the week: What is a gorilla roll?

Love,
Kindergarten

Housekeeping:

GYMNASTICS
We have a “Kids’s Move” gymnastics program in the gym this week. Students are required to remove their shoes and socks. Parents please send your child in loose clothing so that it is easier for them to move around. Please avoid stockings, as these will take long to take off and put back on. Thank you for your help with this. If your child has long hair, please tie it in a ponytail as well. Thank you.

AM class: we will be dismissing from the red gym doors at the end of the morning this week.

SWIMMING
We are going swimming next week. Please make sure your white swimming consent forms have been returned. Please review the blue letter that was given to you last month so you know what you need to pack.

AM class: NEXT WEEK, all AM students need to be at the kindergarten doors no later than 8:00am instead of 8:15am. The bus leaves at 8:15am so we will be letting the students in at 8:00am. Students will need to be picked up at the kindergarten doors at 11:00am.

Drop off: 8:00am at door 2 (kindergarten doors)
Pick up: 11:00am at door 2 (kindergarten doors)

PM class: NEXT WEEK, all PM students need to be at the kindergarten doors no later than 12:00pm. The bus leaves at 12:15pm. Students will need to be picked up at the kindergarten entrance doors at 2:50pm.

  3. Where you stand with your legs wide apart and then you reach your arms down and through your legs. Then you roll over.

  4. Hannah D said a gorilla roll is when you tuck your head and arms between you legs and roll over.
