Here's to a new school year!

I am so happy the school year has begun.  The first few weeks we always take the time to get to know each other. I have such a great time getting to know all my new students. This first week was filled with all new faces. We read The Kissing Hand and did activities to learn about ourselves.
I would like for each child to create a poster telling the class about them. We call it an All About Me poster.  It can include pictures of your child and the family, favorite things, etc.  You are free to do the poster as you please. It will be something fun for your child to share with the class. We will start sharing next week when all of the students will be here.
I sent home forms for you to fill out on Friday to give permission for your child's picture and name to be used on the blog.  Please return these asap so that we can start posting all the fun activities we do each week. I look forward to updating you through this blog about all the fun things we do each week!  As always if you need anything or have any questions please feel free to email me!

Back to School

Tomorrow will bring about a new year in the Lower K classroom.  I am so excited to see my students from last year, and get to see all the new faces.  I have been working hard all summer to create a new and exciting curriculum for my students.  We have so many fun things planned and I can't wait to get started.  This week will be a week full of getting to know each other and the routines of our class.  Next week starts the hard work =)  I am so excited for the big first day of school tomorrow!  To my new parents, welcome to our website, and to the returning parents, I am so happy to have you back!  I hope you all had a wonderful summer and I can't wait to hear about it!  See you tomorrow!!
