Read to Self

Building Stamina

We are building stamina!  Creatures are learning how to read to self by reading the pictures, reading the words, and retelling the story!   Have your child read to you using one of these strategies!

Sight Words

Today we started sight words!  Please work on these every night with your child.  The faster they learn them, the faster they can recognize them when reading.  It also helps to have them practice writing them!

Words for this week: I, am, me

School Supplies

Supplies:

I know that some of you are planning on bringing  supplies in Monday. We still need about 4 of the Primary Journal/Mead story tablets. I noticed they had a bunch at Walmart, but they were not in the school supply section. They are located in the office supply section with the crayons and markers. Please let me know if you have any questions. I know that the supply list can be a bit confusing.

Below I have posted a picture of the journal. Please make sure it is the Primary Writing Stage 3, Early Creative Story Tablet. Let me know if you have any other questions. Can't wait to see you Monday!

The Night Before Kindergarten

I hope everyone is excited about the first day of school tomorrow!  I know I am!  Get plenty of rest and I will see you in the morning!

Parents don't forget about the Tears and Cheers Breakfast:
After you say your final goodbyes, Bolin PTA invites all Kindergarten parents to enjoy breakfast to meet other parents, PTA members, and Mrs. Joyce and Mrs. Lutrick. It will be located in the Multipurpose Room from 7:30-8:30. This is a great opportunity to meet with other Kindergarten parents too!
