Kindergarten News for the Week of October 20, 2014

This week we will focus on the letter Ss as in snake.  Show and Tell for the letter Ss will be on Friday, October 24.  A paper bag with the letter Ss will be sent home in your child’s folder on Thursday.  Please send the bag back to school on Friday with one or two small items that start with Ss.   Please note that the items must be small enough to fit inside the brown paper bag.  Thank you for your help!
