Hi Parents!
It was a GREAT
first day of school! This is our first of many daily emails!
At the end of the
day we had a closing meeting. I had the kids tell me (in their own words) what
we did today. Here is what they said…
We sat in our chairs and colored. (Will C.)
This
1st day of school coloring is in the Take Home Folder.
We went to music class. We did music
sticks. (Kennedy and Will M.)
We played on the playground for a long
time. (Caroline and Abby)
We ate snack. (Adalynn)
We made headbands. It says I Rocked The 1st
Day of Kindergarten. (James)
We played with play-doh. (Evalynn)
We read some books. The 2nd book we read
was about how we get to school. (Rylan) We also did a sorting/graphing
activity on the Smartboard where each kid got to share how they were getting
home. We were able to see which group
had the most!
We played with toys. (Alice)
We also read Look
Out Kindergarten Here I Come and Miss Bindergarten Gets Ready for
Kindergarten. We did a lot of practicing of classroom and playground expectations.
Ask your child tonight about how we sit on the carpet, line up, walk in the
hallway, etc.
The red Take Home Folder is coming home today!
Please look this over tonight! Their first homework project (Me Bag) is on the “Return
to School” side of the folder. Please let me know if you have any questions
about this project! Return this folder in the backpack tomorrow and every
school day.
I put lots of
pictures on Class Dojo today! Make
sure you check it out!
It was a busy day
at school so they will probably be very tired tonight! I recommend an early
bedtime (especially these first couple weeks)!
Thank you SO much
for all the classroom donations of items! I really appreciate it! Thanks for
helping our classroom ROCK!
Have a wonderful
night!!
