Welcome!

I am so excited to kick the new school year off with our new class!  We have already had so much fun in our first 3 days.  We have been practicing our cutting and gluing skills, learning about Peacemakers and Peacebreakers, and reading so many fabulous books (Llama, Llama Misses Mama, The Night Before Kindergarten, The Kissing Hand, Jake Starts School, Monster Goes to School, and No David).  All of our books have helped us get over the jitters of starting school and have helped us understand our new classroom procedures & rules.  Please reinforce these with your own children at home; as they are extremely important to ensure that all 23 of our students are able to focus on their academics.  Please do not hesitate to contact me this year if you have any questions and/or concerns.  As a team, we will help your child reach their highest potential!
