My Project

Our kindergarten class is getting ready for something super special - our moving-up celebration day! But to make it extra amazing, we need your help!

We're looking for some cool stuff to make our big day even more awesome.

First, we want to learn more about first grade and the book, Twas the Night Before First Grade, will tell us all about it. It will have awesome pictures in a fun story to help us get ready for the next big adventure!

Next, we need certificates to show how much we've learned and how far we've come. They'll be like super cool awards just for us!

And guess what? We also want colorful stoles to wear during the ceremony. They'll show everyone that we're moving up to first grade and ready for whatever comes our way!

Your help, no matter how big or small, will make our graduation day super special. Thanks for being awesome and helping us get ready for the next big step!
