  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa      Last Week My goodness the end of the year has come so quickly. The students have been anxious to help with packing up and cleaning the room. I can't speak to what happens at home, but each one of them is very helpful and great at cleaning and organizing. It has been fun working as a team getting our room ready for summer and next year's kindergarten class! Your child has been coming home with books from school. Many are from our current ELA curriculum which we will not be using next year. We are excited to get as many books into the homes and hands of our students for summer reading. These books were chosen by your students which they enjoyed. A few more will be added to your home library yet this week as I reorganize my library. 😊 __________________ ______________________ __ Snack and Leaders May 28-Tyler May 29-Charlie May 30-Hudson May 31-Ophelia We have 22 children in our class. *denot...

Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                                                             Last Week Thankfully, we finished up our NWEA testing last week. The students worked hard and were happy to have this task complete. You will receive the results with your child's progress reports the week after school let's out. Even though we had to move our Donuts with Someone Special event inside, it was lots of fun being together enjoying a delicious sweet treat. Thank you to all the PTO parents who made that happen for us. That is no small undertaking, but the memories are certainly appreciated. April homework calendars are still welcome for a trip to the treasure chest. 🙌 Thank you for continuing the search for the last few library books. The Book Bonanza was a...

I hope your families pampered you appropriately. What a beautiful day it has been too. 💙💛 My goodness, thank you all for the many gifts, flowers, pictures and notes during Teacher Appreciation Week!! I was certainly spoiled and felt very loved and appreciated. Please know that I appreciate all of you as well. 😊 We had a perfect day for our trip to Sarett Nature Center. Thank you to all the grown ups who joined us. We had an indoor session when we learned about several kinds of forest animals. The Naturalists did a nice job and we even saw several live animals that have been found on the Sarett propert...

Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                                                             Last Week Your children did a wonderful job of showing the preschoolers from the YMCA all about Brown School and Kindergarten. They all looked so little, which reminded me of how my current students looked when the year began. They have all grown so much! Please remember to send in the finished April homework calendars for a trip to the treasure chest. Last week I showed the class this video for learning to tie shoes. I have used this with several kiddos and it usually learned quickly. Give it a try.  Easiest Way to Tie Shoes   Snack and Leaders Your child will come home with the Leader bag the night before his/her leader day. There is a notebook inside with ...
