Here are links to the color songs we have been singing during "Color Weeks." The kids LOVE them, and little do they know, they are actually LEARNING while they sing these catchy little tunes!
-Enjoy!

Week One
Wow! Five full days of Kindergarten on the very first week of school has worn me out, big time! We had a week full of singing, dancing, routine practicing, expectation learning, friend-making, laughing, exploring, and getting to know each other. Thank goodness for restful weekends and the large cup 'o' joe that is keeping me awake this beautiful Sunday evening as I reflect on week one. I love my job!
First Week Findings:
-Jack Hartmann's "My Whole Body Can Move" is our new favorite jam.
-We like to "rap" the Days of the Week.
-Automatic toilets might flush before you finish. It's okay. Continue :-)
-Play-doh smells funny.
-Ms. Taylor is very picky about a neat & tidy classroom, so WE are learning to be neat and tidy.
-Hand-painting tickles!!!
-If you fake sleeping at rest time, Ms. Taylor will give you an AWESOME POSSUM award :-)
Parents:
Thank you SO MUCH for the support you have already shown. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or send a note in your child's blue folder. Newsletters go home on Monday. Continue to initial your child's behavior calendar each night. I look forward to a great year with your precious child.

To My Upcoming Kindergarteners...
Dear Kindergartener (and parent),
I am SO excited to meet you! You are going to LOVE kindergarten. I think I have the best job in the world because I get to go to kindergarten every year! I will be your teacher this year, and we are going to have so much fun as we learn and grow together. I'm going to tell you and your parents about a few important days that are coming up. Write them down so that you don't miss them!
Wednesday, August 15th at 4:00 pm- MEET THE TEACHER
A day to meet me (yay!), see our classroom (wahoo!), and fill out some very important paper work (alright!) Please do not miss this day!
Monday, August 20th- FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL & KINDERGARTEN PICTURES
I am so excited about this day, and I hope you are too! You will be getting your beginning-of-the-year pictures made, so come with a smile!
Thursday, September 6th at 6:00 PM- PARENT ORIENTATION
(Parents only please!) This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about what your child will be up to this year. I will inform you of our classroom procedures, discipline policy, important dates, and all sorts of other useful information. Please come!
Enjoy the rest of your summer and I'll see you soon!
Ms. Taylor
