Fire Drill & Letter O

Hello Super K Families!

Today was a busy day in Super K!  We started our day with our first fire drill.  We have practiced before, but this was our first drill with the alarm ringing throughout the school.  Our class did soooo well!  They lined up quickly and walked out to our safe meeting spot quietly.

Today was letter O for our ABC Boot Camp. The kiddos made an otter hat and learned all about the letter name and sound.  So far we have went from A-O, ask your kinder kiddo to tell you their letter names and sounds!

Love,
Mrs. Griffith, Mrs. Baied, and Ms. Pelkey

Bikers Against Bullies & PJ Day

Hello Super K Families!

Flash talking to us about diversity
We have had a busy week here in Super K!  Kiddos have been getting into the routine of kindergarten by learning expectations and new kindergarten jobs.  ABC Boot Camp has been underway and this week we have learned Gg, Hh, Ii, Jj, and will continue with Kk tomorrow.  We have learned the letter names, sounds, and created silly projects to go with each.  Ask your kindergartner about their letter names and sounds!

The Voice star Jared Blake
Flash's Special Bikers Against Bullies Motorcycle
Yesterday we had the pleasure to attend an assembly hosted by Bikers Against Bullies.  Flash rode his special motorcycle into our gym and talked to us about being respectful and how diversity makes our school awesome.  His friend country star Jared Blake (he was on The Voice!) joined him to help teach us about not allowing anyone to take away our power and love ourselves. Jared Blake treated us to a private concert of his original songs and broke his guitar string jamming out with our school!  All of Lowell School also sang along to Jared's rendition of Justin Beiber's Love Yourself.  Bikers Against Bullies was so awesome that they donated Jared Blake posters and Bikers Against Bullies T-Shirts to EVERY Lowell student and staff member!  Look for shirts to be sent home next week.

Now for the most EXCITING news.....
Super K has been doing such a great job following the 4 Be's (Be Safe, Respectful, Responsible, and Kind) that we have filled our Bobcat Buck jar!  Tomorrow, Friday, Sept. 15th will be our first Bobcat Reward...PAJAMA DAY!  Kiddos are encouraged to wear their PJs to school with school appropriate shoes.  (Please keep all stuffed animals and special toys at home.)



Love,
Mrs. Griffith, Mrs. Baied, and Ms. Pelkey

Fabulous First Day

Today was a FABULOUS first day of Super K! We are so excited to have all of our kids in the same room. We started the day with a coloring job, learned all about the letter A, made an 'a is for apple' crown, traced Aa, read a story called Countdown to Kindergarten, and learned about the number 1. We had a very busy day and your kiddos could be very tired, we are!!

Ask your kiddo.....

  • What sound does A make? (aaa)
  • Who is the zoo friend that you met today? (Ally Alligator)
  • What are your teachers names? (Mrs. Baied, Mrs. Griffith, Ms. Pelkey)
See you all tomorrow for another busy day including a fire drill and a school-wide assembly!
