October is starting today and I know the kids are excited as I am. They were watching me change the calendar yesterday and already asking important questions like "Are we going to the pumpkin patch tomorrow?" I have been so impressed this week by how independent the children are getting during centers. They really know what to do and are going the extra mile to help each other be successful. Along with the weekly newsletter (the Classroom Happenings section on the homework cover sheet) that is going home this week, there is also a October newsletter from me. Please read both to see what we have been busy doing in September. Hopefully you get a chance to look through your child's work weekly when it is sent home to see how far he/she has already come. Volunteers are coming out of the woodwork! It is a great feeling to know how supportive each family is of their child's education. Have a great first week of October.
Welcome to Kindergarten!
I am excited to have the opportunity to get to know so many great families over the 2010-2011 school year. Kindergarten is the foundation to your child's educational future and it is essential that he/she has a great experience to get him/her started out on the right foot. Blogging is a new experience for me, but I think I am really going to enjoy it. My goal is to update my blog once a week as it is one of many ways I strive to keep you informed of classroom happenings. Enjoy!
