Our New Class Pet!

Ms. Suarez went out last week and bought our class a new pet!  We had a vote to name our new friend and his name is Oscar!  Everyone has enjoyed getting to watch Oscar in his new home!

Early College Visitors

We are lucky at our school to have a partnership with the Union County Early College where some of their freshmen students come to visit our kindergartners several times during the first half of the year.  Our students look forward to seeing the "big kids" every time they come!  The last two times the early college students have brought activities to do outside with our students.  Later on in the fall they will be bringing books and indoor activities to do with them as well.  Here are a few pictures from our latest visit with them!

Jaqueline and Jamirah had fun twirling the ribbon wands.

Everyone always enjoys the parachute activities!!

Teddy Bear Fun!

As you know this week each one of our students has been able to bring in a "special friend" for the week to share with our class.  We have had a great time with our animal friends so far!  Here are a few pictures from things we have done this week.

On Tuesday, we went to the library where Mrs. Lanzy showed us one of her favorite friends as well.  She showed us some books about real bears and taught us some new bear facts!

Here are our friends enjoying the story with their animals!

We also did our first graphing activity of the year!  We sorted gummy bears by their color and then graphed them on our papers.  The best part of course was when we got to eat them at the end!

I think our friends have had a really great time visiting Kindergarten this week!  They will be coming home with your child tomorrow (Friday) to live back at your house! 

Please Remember!  There is NO SCHOOL on Monday September 7th for our labor day holiday!  We hope that everyone enjoys their long weekend!

Prizes and Birthdays!

We have also had a few special things happen in the last week!  Today was Danyelle's birthday and we were able to celebrate it with her at school, Happy 5th birthday Danyelle!

Nicholas (on the left) was also one of the prize winners for our grade level last week for the adopt an artist campaign!  Thanks to everyone in our room who helped to raise money for our school!

Some Outdoor Fun!

We thought that we would start off our blog by adding a few pictures of our friends outside playing and getting to know each other!  Last week we were learning all about our friends at school and we had a great time learning about each and every person in our room!  Here are a few pictures from our outdoor play time last week!

Kamran was working hard on the monkey bars!

Tyler was being a great friend and pushing Danny on the swing!

Zaria and Mirian swinging!

A few good looking group shots!

Alex is proud of him self after climbing to the top of the play area!
