Our field trip to the zoo will be Friday, October 16th. We love chaperones! If you are able please come and enjoy the day with your Kindergartener! I will begin decorating t-shirts on Tuesday.

Week of August 31
Dear Parents,
We had a great week in Kindergarten! We had so much fun reading Hickory Dickory Dock and participating in all our activities.
Next week we will be reading Old Mother Hubbard. If you have a dog, have your child bring in a picture to show the class. We did not start the reading series this week, therefore we will also be reading “The Little School Bus”. We will be learning about how we get to school. We will also be reviewing all the colors. Please have your child wear the “color of the day” if he/she can:
Monday- brown

About Me
- Mrs. Jamie Thomas M.A.Ed.
- I have been teaching for four years, currently this is my third year in Kindergarten. I received my initial education from Old Dominion University, where I received a Bachelor of Science Degree. I then completed my Master of Arts Degree in Education from Union University. I am currently working on my Reading Specialist Certification, and hope to be accepted into the Education Specialist program in the Spring of 2010. I love helping children discover the love of reading and all the doors it can open for them in the future. My husband is in the Coast Guard, and I have two beautiful daughters, Lilian and Aniston.
