My Project

My students are special because they love to learn. They try their best each day and truly demonstrate love, learn, lead on a daily basis. Kindergarten is a fun and challenging year for students and they deserve to be celebrated.

Please help us to make the end of kindergarten fun with our themed countdown days that will be used during reading and math stations.

On glow day students will complete various reading and math learning stations under the glow of neon.

On chalk day students will write sight words and word family words in chalk. Students will have a pirate day and we will read "Pirates Don't Change Diapers" and determine character, setting, problem and solution in the story. Other celebrations include bubble day, team day, picnic lunch, nature walk, and many other great activities to celebrate their successes this school year. We are so proud of them and would appreciate any help you can provide.
