Kindergarten Corner
March 10-14, 2014Dear Parents,
Well, we are hopeful that “Old Man Winter” will slowly, but surely, leave us in the coming days. Spring is right around the corner, and we are looking forward to everything it brings us in nature, as well as the warmer weather.
Progress reports were sent home in agendas yesterday. Please contact your child’s teacher if you have any questions and/or concerns. Again, we need your help at home with money recognition (penny, nickel, dime and quarter) and knowing the value of a set of pennies and/or nickels. Also, please work with your child on writing his/her last name. Please continue to read with your child every night, making sure to ask questions before, during and after reading. Make it a fun and enjoyable experience. J
Thanks and take care!
