Get Ready for a “Bee-utiful” Year in Kindergarten!

Don’t forget to do your family home project (Turkey) and get it in to hang in the hallway!
Please make sure you are checking your student’s calendar daily, and emptying out old papers. We have some overflowing folders and something's that need signed! Calendars also show when PE is and Library so your student knows when to wear tennis shoes and bring their library book back!
PLEASE TAKE NOTE: All students need to make sure they are appropriately dressed every day and always prepared for the weather! Tank tops are not ok anymore! Socks and closed-toed shoes need to be worn every day! It looks like fall is skipping Missouri this year, please make sure your student has a hoodie or jacket to keep INSIDE their backpack, BUT THEY ARE BRINGING THEIR HEAVY, THICK WINTER COAT EVERY DAY!!! As per school policy, we go outside for recess if it is 32 degrees or above.
I will be sending home a special book order this week for the holidays! It wasn’t planning to send it, but this is a great opportunity for Christmas presents! It will be due Tuesday, December 4th to ensure we get it before break! Please let me know if you are ordering a present, I will contact you for pickup so it is a surprise to your student!

Poetry-We will be learning a new poem Hello Mr. Turkey How Are You?
