Dot Day:

Sunday, September 15th, is National Dot Day! This is a special day to celebrate the character, Vashti, in the story “The Dot.” Peter H. Reynolds, the author and illustrator, released this book on September 15, 2013. 

Vashti is a young girl who didn’t think she was a good artist. Her art teacher encouraged her to just make a mark. This story has inspired millions of children and teachers. The story is used by teachers to instill creativity and confidence in their students. 

CCLS Kindergarten will wear polka dots on Monday, September 16th to celebrate Dot Day. Listed below are a few guidelines.

1. Your child can wear polka dot shirts, sweaters or skirts.

2. Your child can wear polka dot socks or hair accessories. 

3. Your child’s polka dot items must be school appropriate (ex. No pajamas, costumes, etc).

We will be reading different Peter H. Reynolds books all week and will be doing fun activities to celebrate creativity and confidence!

Farewells

 As a reminder of trying to become more independent in kindergarten, we ask that you say your farewells at the door, so we can get started with our morning. We begin our day promptly at 8:10am with school-wide pledges. If you are running late, just have your student come into the classroom alone as we have already begun our day. 

If your student struggles with drop off, a teacher can help assist them into the classroom. After seeing friends and starting the day, the tears go away quickly!

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out!

In Him,

A Note from Mrs. Kaber:

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend! As we are entering the third week of school, the students are becoming more and more independent and learning our classroom routines and procedures. As a reminder of trying to become more independent in kindergarten, we ask that you say your farewells at the door, so we can get started with our morning. We begin our day promptly at 8:10am with school-wide pledges. If you are running late, just have your student come into the classroom alone as we have already begun our day. 

If your student struggles with drop off, a teacher can help assist them into the classroom. After seeing friends and starting the day, the tears go away quickly!
