This week in Room 2

Spring is always a fun time in kindergarten.  The young scholars have their routines down, most have mastered the art of basic kindergarten writing, and we focus on continuing to improve our literacy and math skills.

Today we welcomed Olivia to our classroom.  The students were very helpful and friendly throughout the day.

This week we are thrilled to have an artist in residence in the classroom.  We will be learning West African Dance with Habiba.  She will be in the classroom on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings.

Next Thursday, April 8, is our annual Run for the Arts.  This is our annual fundraiser for arts in school.  Money raised is used to bring artists such as Bernie Duffy and Habiba as well as for artistic assemblies.  Your child brought home a packet before break.  Please return the packet on Thursday the 8th.

Also Friday, April 9th is a teacher planning day.  There is no school for students.

Here are some details about our week:
