We are down to the last few weeks of school! They will surely fly by! As we begin to wrap up our year we are busy reviewing all we have learned in kindergarten and also getting ready for first grade. The students are constantly hearing me say things like, “Read like first graders, write like first graders, act like first graders..” I am so proud of all they have learned this year. These kiddos impress me every day! Thank you for your continued support as we have a fabulous ending to our kindergarten year!
