THANK YOU!!

A big thank you to the PM class and the wonderful birthday surprise you gave me upon meeting you today. I certainly was surprised! I love the boquet of balloons; they brighten up the room so much! And the cookies...oh my. Those are officially my favorite cookie. :)
Thanks for making my afternoon so special!

Music Concert This Thursday!

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Recently in music class the kindergarteners have started preparing for their concert Spring Into Summer. It is scheduled for Thursday, June 2^nd in the multipurpose room at Grand Ridge Elementary. Because we have six sections of kindergarten, there will be two performances:

9:30 a.m. Thomas, Lanham, Perry a.m.

3:00 p.m. Cooks, Dolen, Perry p.m.

If your student would like to practice at home, we have posted the lyrics on Ms. Badgley’s website at www.wix.com/abadgley/grand-ridge-music. The link is on the “concerts” page.

Attire for the concert is to wear bright colored summer clothes as follows:

· Boys can wear nice pants (no jeans or shorts) and a collared shirt

· Girls can wear a nice skirt, dress, or nice pants (no jeans or shorts) and a blouse

We look forward to seeing you at the concert!

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to email Ms. Ransom at ransomk@issaquah.wednet.edu

I have a few back ordered books here from the last scholastic order and I can't remember who they belong to. Will you let me know if one of these titles is yours? Thanks!

THANK YOU!!

A LONG overdue thank you to everyone who made my teacher appreciation week so darn special. I seriously was spoiled rotten! From daily drinks and pastries to cute handwritten notes from the kids to a surprising shower of compliments hanging from the ceiling and MUCH MUCH more.

I have to admit that I did feel a little guilty accepting all of your appreciation because honestly, I have THE BEST job in the world and if there were no bills to pay I'd do it for free. I am so blessed to be able to partner with all of you to help each individual child reach their potential.

Here are a few highlights from the week.

REMINDER!

ABC Countdown:
Today is HAT DAY for AM and GRAPHING DAY (bring in a rock) for PM.

End of the Year Party

Brush off those party hats because kindergarten is going to have an end of the year party on June 10th from 2:15-3:15 at Central Park. This is a walking field trip and you have already signed your permission slips at the beginning of the year.

AM students will need to come back for this party. They can meet us in our classroom at 2pm. Parents of AM students are welcome to join us, but do not need to attend. AM kids will need to be picked up at the end of the day (3:38) if you are leaving them in my care.

More details to follow!
