Week of 5-22-17

This is always a bittersweet time of year.  We are all excited for summer break and are looking forward to rest, relaxation, and fun, but we are also sad that this school year has come to a close. The Monkeys have worked so hard and made some amazing friendships that will only continue to grow next year in 1st grade. In math, the Monkeys have been learning about coins and working on being able to identify one coin from another. We have used these fun songs to help us out and they are loving them!


In language arts, we have been doing some author studies on Mo Willems and Oliver Jeffers. Both authors create fun and engaging books for all kids.  Ask your child what their favorite Mo Willems book is and what their favorite book by Oliver Jeffers might be.  We have also been writing about how we have grown this year in Kindergarten.  The Monkeys have been writing some fun and kind things about their dads that will go home next week as early Father's Day love!
We also got to watch another tradition this week at CCE when we watched the senior walk. It will be so fun to watch your kiddos come back to CCE for the senior walk!
Remember that next week is a short week with Memorial Day on Monday.  Then, since the last day of school is on Thursday, we will not be at school on Friday.  It will be a fun and exciting week!
Tuesday is field day and game day!  Remember that your child will need to bring a change of clothes to school on Tuesday since we will have water stations during field day.  We will be changing after field day before we go to lunch.  Your kiddo may also bring any board games or card games to school that day for our game day. They will need to bring a game that they know how to play and that they can teach others to play. Please no electronic games.
Wednesday will be the day that we will start packing up all their things. Please send a reusable bag labeled with their name to put all their school goodies in to take home! We will also be doing some flashlight reading, so please drop a flashlight, again labeled with their name, into their backpack.
Thursday is the last day of school and our end of year party will start at 1:30. We hope you will all join us!
Have a great holiday weekend and I will see my Monkeys on Tuesday!
