My Project

My kindergarteners have worked so hard throughout the school year! We have learned how to be a student, how to make friends, conflict resolution skills, and so many other academic skills! They are just as excited about coming back next year for first grade as they are for summer break!

This book will help my students to celebrate all there hard work this year.

It will give them reading material to practice the skills they have learned during the year! This book will keep them reading all summer and help to get them excited to come back to school in the fall.

This book can also answer some of the nervous questions a student might have about moving on to first grade. Moving on to first grade can be scary for a student and I hope this book will add some excitement to starting a new school year.
