 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. 😊

We have 22 children in our class.

Due to allergies, please refrain from sending snacks that contain any kind of nut. Thank you!

Next Week

I will be sending homework calendars for the summer months. They include some fun, different activities

that will help your child continue learning/maintaining during time away from school. Children typically

lose knowledge over the summer if parents are not intentional about keeping that from happening.

Thank you for keeping the learning going ☺.


Please continue to work on reading (both to your child and listening to him/her read) and sight words each day. As mentioned above, it really makes a difference in reading and writing achievement.


Tuesday, May 28-All School Picnic


Wednesday, May 29-1/2 day 


Thursday, May 30-1/2 day and Class End of the Year Party


Friday, May 31-Last 1/2 day of Kindergarten 😢


This is my last newsletter of the year. It is hard to believe that the year has come to an end. Each day when

we count the days left on the calendar we all have a mixture of excitement and sadness. It has truly been

a wonderful year. Thank you for entrusting me with your precious children. I have been blessed to spend

the year with them and also to meet all of you parents. I will look forward to watching your children grow

as they move through Brown School and beyond ☺.


Have a wonderful summer!!

  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                                                             Last Week The Solar Eclipse was such a neat experience on Monday. We are grateful to Mrs. Francis, a science teacher at Upton Middle School for receiving a grant to purchase a pair of glasses for every student in SJ Schools. I think it is a memory our children will hold on to and enjoy retelling. I hope your child came home full of excitement and was able to tell you all about it. On Thursday your child came home with a bound book that he/she helped to illustrate and create. Each of our Brown kindergartners drew a picture and gave a story starter to a SJHS Child Development student from Ms. Allen's class. On Thursday morning all 40 (2 classes) students came to r...

  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                               Last Week I hope the Gingerbread houses made it home in good shape (I realize the chances of that are slim 😏). We certainly had a great time making them together. Thank you again to the volunteers who came to help. We could not have done it without you.  November homework and Book-It calendars are welcome back for a trip to the treasure chest and Pizza Hut certificate. Reminder that your child's name must be on it as well as your signature.  Snack and Leaders Your child will come home with the Leader bag the night before his/her leader day.

  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                                                             Last Week Last week flew by! Ice skating was a blast from what I hear. I was so sorry to miss this great event. Mrs. Gideon took some good pictures and really enjoyed the day with your wonderful children. A huge thank you goes out to all the parents who came to help get skates on and tied, help with skating and then getting them off again. We just couldn't do fun things like this without the amazing support from all of you! It was fun welcoming Hudson into our class. I was so proud of our students as they worked to make him feel at home with us. Getting a new student is exciting and fun 😀!
