Welcome to Pre-K

Welcome to the Pre-K class blog!  I'm so glad you came to visit!  I will use this blog to keep you informed on upcoming events, class news, and other important information.  There is no need to subscribe to it.  I will email you when I post something new.  
Items your child will need for Pre-K:
Beach towel for Rest Time (not too big or thick...it needs to fit in a small cubby)
Backpack (big enough to fit a folder, lunchbox, extra shoes in the winter, etc...)
Water Bottle (with a spill-proof top...the kind with a flip-up top and a straw work well)
Lunchbox (if needed)
Gym shoes (to be left at school for Physical Education class) are optional.  I will let you know the days we have PE class.  You are welcome to send your child to school in athletic shoes on the days we have PE if you prefer.  Please make sure your child wears velcro shoes if he/she does not know how to tie his/her own shoelaces.
Your child does not need his/her own pencil box.  We share crayons, glue sticks, scissors, etc..., but if you could donate the following items to our classroom supply I would greatly appreciate it! :)
3 boxes of 24 count Crayola crayons
1 pack of Elmer's glue sticks (.24 oz - the small ones)
1 box of Crayola washable markers (any colors)
(Bauer's blog listed colored pencils on the Pre-K list.  However, I am all set on colored pencils and have a greater need for extra crayons, so I am asking for 3 boxes of crayons instead.) :)
Please bring the beach towel, crayons, glue sticks, markers, and gym shoes (optional) to our Pre-Kindergarten Orientation on Monday, August 29.  There will also be a "giving tree" at Pre-K Orientation with other needed items.  
Thanks so much!
