The first week in Kindergarten

We have had such a productive, fun, and busy first week in Kindergarten. On the first day we read the book 'The Kissing Hand' and created our very own kissing hands. We have also been learning about how to be a good friend and how to treat everyone with kindness. 

This week we started our daily printing by practicing printing our names. We will continue to practice this throughout the month of September. 
* When practicing at home, please remember to use only one upper case and the rest lower case. For example Ms. Rothe rather than MS. ROTHE

We look forward to continuing our learning throughout the year!
