Welcome to Mrs. Keller's Kindergarten class for 2013-2014! Here you will find important information about classroom routines, supplies, snack and lunch times, and transportation. Each student is encouraged to bring a change of clothes, and optional supplies like Play-Doh. We will celebrate birthdays and have a "Student of the Week" program. Please remember that absence notes and transportation changes must be communicated directly. Our curriculum will cover reading, writing, math, science, and social studies, with various engaging activities and special classes throughout the week. Let’s make this an exciting year for all!
