June 17th: HAPPY SUMMER!


Dear Families,

Happy last day of school! Thank you for entrusting me with your
children this year and for all of your support at home. We have
had a wonderful year!

I'd like to thank your children, as well. Thank you for a fun year.
We have made many great memories and have learned so much
together this year. I have really enjoyed watching you grow to be
such great readers, writers, thinkers and friends. I am so proud
of you all!
Wishing you all a safe, fun, and happy summer vacation!
Mrs. Lynch





A few highlights from the past few weeks in Kindergarten:

Four Winds
I'd like to extend a huge thank you to Betsy Brown and Karen Parker for being the Four Winds leaders for Kindergarten this year. We have all had so much fun learning and exploring with you. Our final Four Winds lesson was so much fun! We learned about the compass rose and how to use a compass. We even got to apply our compass skills to solve riddles around the school yard.

Button Bay
On Thursday, June 13th the whole school celebrated the end of the school
year with a field trip to Button Bay. We hiked to the nature center where
we saw different species of animals that live in Vermont and then walked
out to the point to see Lake Champlain. Afterwards, we participated in a
sing-along with Ms. Pirog, Ms. Lindsey and Mrs. Tatlock. After a brief
lunch and recess on the playground, we participated in field games
such as: tug-o-war, dress-up relay, sponge relay and hula huts. Then, we
spent some time swimming in the pool. The day was filled with adventure
and lots of fun.


Summer Reading Challenge
I have sent home a summer reading challenge for students. If they choose to participate, every time they read a book (or someone reads a book to them) this summer, they should color in a book on the record sheet. Students who return a signed reading challenge record sheet to me in the fall will receive a prize. 10-20 books will receive a small prize. 50-100 books will receive a larger prize. If students should read beyond 100 books, there will also be a larger prize. Happy reading!
