I miss you, kindergarten friends!

Hello my kindergarten friends!
 
I am missing you SO much!  I hope you are enjoying some fun time with your families, but please know that I think of each of you every single day and that I can't wait until we are together again! :) 
 
Please use this time to, most importantly, stay safe and healthy.  I know it can get boring, but I want you to think about all of the fun things we do in school each day, and try to incorporate them into your daily life!  First of all, READ, READ, READ!  Imagine you are finished at "Ms. Shelley's Center."  Grab a pillow, get cozy, and read a book--maybe even to a brother or sister, a pet, or a stuffed animal!  :)  Also, think about all of the writing we do in our classroom!  Draw a picture and try to write sentences about it!  Remember that we always sound out words and write the letters that we hear.  If it's not spelled perfectly, that's okay!  Remember that we also always think about using capital letters at the beginning, finger spaces throughout, and a period or ending mark at the end of our sentences.  Also, think about all of the fun things we do on the iPads during centers!  ABCya has so many fun learning games that you could show to your families!  You could make them proud by showing them how you can identify coins, count, and add numbers together.  I would be so proud to see you play the learning games--they help us to get smarter every day!  Take time to create, move, and make every day fun!  
 
Finally, I have attached the link to our Elementary Librarian, Ms. Latoche's website.  She has many online resources for reading that would be extremely beneficial for families to use at this time.  These resources are very user friendly, fun, exciting, and educational!  
 
I can't wait to see you again, my friends!  Please know I miss you so much and I think of you every single day!  Stay safe and happy! :)
 
Love,
Mrs. Dininny
