Good Monday Morning!


Good Monday Morning Everyone!

We had a wonderful first three days of school. I enjoyed having everyone in class and getting to know each student a little bit better. We have learned a lot during our first three days in Kindergarten. We focused on our class rules, making friends, how to walk in a line with a monkey face on, and simple classroom procedures.

There are a couple of important reminders! I have previously sent home notes in your child’s folder last week, but just in case they got lost, or you forgot, here they are:

·        Water Bottles!

o   We are asking every student to bring in a water bottle. It is hot outside and we do not have water fountains in the classroom so PLEASE make sure your student has water to drink every day. Leaks are an issue we have already endured, so please check to make sure the water bottle is leak free.  Juice will not be permitted in the classroom, so make sure you just send in water!

·        Composition Notebooks!

o   EVERY STUDENT will need 3 composition notebooks this year. These came in the pre-ordered supply packs bought through the school, but somehow got left off the online list for parents to purchase on their own. We are using one for Writing, one for Math, and one for Science interactive journals this year.  So we need three per student. I was just at Target yesterday and they have the simple black ones for $0.50 each. I also know you can find them at Wal-Mart and the Dollar store. **Please do not purchase spiral notebooks! The spirals tangle and create a mess!**

·        Extra Clothes!

o   In kindergarten we are always moving, always learning, and always having fun. Please send in an appropriate change of clothes for me to keep at school at all times in case your child has an accident. Since I will be keeping these clothes in the classroom, they do not have to be the school uniform; however they do need to be school appropriate (no short shorts, tank tops, skirts, etc.).
 
Thanks for your help! I know we are in for a wonderful year together!

Welcome!


Welcome to Kindergarten!

I am so excited for this school year to begin! It was nice seeing some students tonight for Meet the Teacher, as well as last Friday for Orientation. We are going to have a fantastic year together. I look forward to getting to know each student, to developing a relationship with all of you, and to having a wonderful time learning and growing together on our journey through kindergarten! 

This website will be your resource and guide through the school year. I will post important information about upcoming events, things that we have been learning and will be learning in class, opportunities for parent volunteers, and much more! So please, make sure you check back often to see what is going on in our classroom!

I can’t wait to see where the year takes us!

Armadilly Chili


Our Armadilly Chili night was a blast! Thank you to all who came out to enjoy a bowl of chili with us! A special thank you to the families that made their own world-famous chili for everyone to try. It was so much fun going around and tasting all of the chili. Congratulations to Isaac from my class, who’s family chili was one of the winners from the night.
 
Here are some pictures from the night:













 

 

Spring Fling


This Saturday, May 4th is Harmony’s Spring Fling.

There will be a silent auction going on during the day where you can vote on many different themed baskets. One that may interest you is the “Graduation VIP” basket.

Inside you will find:

·        An autograph book

·        A graduation memory box

·        A $25 gift card

·        A graduation picture frame

·        8 reserved VIP seats

The best part of the basket is the VIP seats. You and your guests will sit right behind the graduating Kindergarten class. Seats fill up fast, so having the only reserved seating will be beneficial to you!

Happy Earth Day


Happy Earth Day Everyone!

Kindergarten and First Grade would like to celebrate Earth Day with you by sharing their handprint globe!



















Kindergarten did the land, and First Grade did the water.
 
 
Here we are on our Earth Day scavenger hunt to see what we can find.
