Happy New Year!
I hope everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. I was able to spend time with family and friends, but it will be good to see my kindergarten family again. I am looking forward to a great January. I’m sure the month will fly by—just as all the past months have.
I cannot believe it, but our school year is almost half over. January 22nd marks the end of the second quarter of school. I am excited about what the children have already achieved. I know when we all work together, great things will happen for these special children.
January Happenings
This month we will be exploring a number of different themes. We will have a Jan Brett author study. We will also be finding out why Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is so special. Finally, we will be discovering the joys of winter through a unit fill with fun seasonal activities. New sleds have been purchased, so the children will be able to enjoy all of this white fluffy snow!
Book Orders
Check out the book order sent home today. If you would like to place an order, return order slips by January 15. Thanks!
Summer Birthdays
We will be celebrating half birthdays for the children who have July birthdays. Check the dates marked on the calendar for their celebration. If you would like to send a snack or treat you may, but make sure it is a store brought, individually wrapped snack. We have 15 students in each class.
Wishing you a great year filled with happiness and joy!
Julie
