Good Afternoon!
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. We have another exciting and
action packed week of Kindergarten ahead! 🙂
Here is some important information for your reference:
1) Our Kindergarten Parent Teacher Conferences are taking place this
week on Wednesday & Friday. Please see the reminder slip in your
child’s homework folder today for your time & location.
In the event of inclement weather & should there be a snow day on
Wednesday, all scheduled conferences for that day will be rescheduled
to the following Wednesday, Feb. 1st for the same time slots. Please
let me know ASAP if the scheduled time does not work for you and we
will gladly try to accommodate as much as possible. :)
2) Reading Folders are going home today with new weekly packets. This
week our focus for sight words is color words. For the daily practice
writing sheet you will see the “Spelling Choice Board” where students can
select one different activity a day to practice writing the five color words
listed on the weekly checklist. Please return completed homework on
Friday.
3) There is our school snack shop open tomorrow during lunch. Pizza money
is due no later than Thursday, please send in labeled money in homework
folders so Mrs. Nowel is aware of what it is for. Thank you!
4) Please SAVE THE DATE for our next BIG Kindergarten event- The
Wedding of Q & U on Friday, February 10th! Our class will be performing a
full ceremony & show beginning at 9:00 am-9:30 am in the gym & fun
reception from 9:45-11:00 am in our classroom to honor the union of two
special letters, and celebrate friendships & Valentine’s Day.
Families are invited and encouraged to join us, at least for the ceremony
portion of the event if possible. Official invitations will be coming home
today.
Please fill out the google form below to RSVP for the event so we can

ASAP. Thank you!
