NEWS

Your kindergarten students will bring their Pre-Assessment results home on Monday in their homework folders.  Please take some time and look it over.  Your child should recognize all 26 letters—both upper and lower case by the end of November.  We have covered the letters A-E so far in class.  Keep in mind that if they write the letters or numbers backwards, it is not considered mastered. Also, this pre-assessment was administered several weeks ago so some of the concepts that were not mastered at that time have now changed. 

During SEP Week (Sept. 30-Oct. 4), we will not have individual appointments for Kindergarten students because of their assessments in August.  However, if there are concerns and you want to meet with me, I would love to do that!  You can e-mail or call me and let me know.  Remember that the students will still be dismissed early. Students will be dismissed every day at 10:50 for AM students and 2:30 for PM students.  PM students will attend from 12:30-2:30, EVEN ON EARLY OUT WEDNESDAYS—NOT THE USUAL TIME from 11:30-1:30. Extended Day students in Mrs. Hermansen’s class will stay until 2:30 as well.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
