A Brand New Kindergarten Year: Let the Adventure Begin!

The first days of kindergarten are filled with a special kind of magic. Fresh crayons wait to be used, tiny backpacks hang in a row, and classroom doors open to a year full of learning, playing, and growing.

We are two weeks into kindergarten now, and what a wonderful beginning it is! Routines are becoming familiar as your child finds their cubby, hangs up a backpack, joins morning circle, listens to stories, takes turns, uses kind words, opens a lunch container, and asks for help. Friendships are blooming at centers, on the playground, and during shared games, while learning is underway through letters, sounds, numbers, and practicing writing their name. Your kindergartner is singing songs, building with blocks, creating paintings, enjoying books, and making daily discoveries that turn learning into an adventure. Some moments still feel tricky, but each brave try helps confidence and independence grow. Celebrate the small victories, listen to the big stories, and remind your child that they belong. With your love and encouragement beside them, these first two weeks are already filled with wonder, growth, laughter, and exciting discoveries and there is so much more adventure ahead!

We have been exploring rhyming words through nursery rhymes. After reading, students used play-dough, popsicle sticks and a pom-pom to see if they could build a sturdy wall for Humpty Dumpty!
