We had a great week and we ended it with a very fun Friday! We kicked off the day with a NOHS pep rally with football players and cheerleaders! The students got to play with their food in order to sort their special snack into 2-D and 3-D shapes and then enjoyed the yummy treat. We completed our week of "Keep RBES Beautiful" by picking up some trash off the playground and hanging up lost items at lost and found.
**We will be going to the library on Tuesday each week. We have talked about where our library book should "live" (in our book bag) when we are not reading it and how to take good care of the books we borrow. The students understand that remembering their book is part of learning responsibility, but know forgetting their book can happen. Please feel free to help your student remember to return their book on library day if needed. We will not have another opportunity to go to the library until the next week.
We have a couple of "collections" that we do at our school. If you would like to send in Box Tops for Education, just send them in a little plastic bag at anytime. We also collect aluminum can pop tops for the Ronald McDonald house in memory of a former RBES student. Again, just send them in a small plastic bag if you choose to collect them. We will be starting a Project Based Learning project (PBL) school wide that is led by Kindergarten starting in October. We will be collecting plastic grocery bags and a few select other plastic films. More information will come home regarding this project around the end of September. Please do not send in plastic bags until we begin because we do not have a place to store them right now. We will have drop off boxes around the school for students to drop off bags and one at the front office for parents to drop off as needed.
Another way to help is through grocery purchases. If you are a Publix shopper, you can go to this website for more information about Publix Partners: http://corporate.publix.com/community/corporate-campaigns/publix-partners
Looking forward to another amazing week in Kindergarten!
