Tomorrow is class picture day. Please make sure your child is here on time tomorrow, so they don't miss out on the class picture. I've only had one year that all of the children were here for the picture. Hopefully tomorrow will make it two! If you would like to purchase a class picture, please send your check in the envelope that was sent home with your child yesterday. The pictures are $8.25. If you do not have the envelope, please send a check for $8.25 and I will fill out the envelope for you.
The carnival is tomorrow night from 6-8 PM. I also sent out a reminder with children yesterday which included 4 free tickets for games. Food is also available for purchase in the gym tomorrow night. Don't forget to check out all of the silent auction items and baskets in the library. Silent auction ends promptly at 7:50. Our class quilt will be in there as well. Check it out and even bid on it if you want:)
There will be a sheet going home with your child's folder tomorrow talking about our Author Visit next month. Each year we celebrate B.E.A.R. Week (Be Excited About Reading) with an Author Visit. The sheet explains about purchasing a book for your child that the author can autograph if you decide to participate. Orders need to be in by the due date to ensure the author brings as many books as ordered.
Three book order forms are going home tomorrow and are due next Thursday if you are planning on ordering.
Don't forget next week we have half days Monday - Thursday. School will be out at 11:30. Don't forget your conference next week. If you cannot make your scheduled conference, call the office to cancel and please reschedule. At Parkside our goal for conferences is always 100% participation. There will also be NO SCHOOL FRIDAY. Enjoy the extra day for Spring Break. There is NO HOMEWORK DURING SPRING BREAK. I will keep your child's folder when it comes in next Thursday and send it home the following week.
See everyone next week!!!
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!
