NEW HOMEWORK:
The kindergarten team is doing their part to help save paper. As you may have seen, our homework packets have changed. Math has stayed the same (2 practice pages) but Language Arts has been scaled down to fit on one page and students are required to attach their proof of work to receive full credit. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me or stop by the classroom.
