Pre-K
In order for us all to get to know each other better I have two
activities for you to do at home with your child over the
summer. These are fun projects to help your child tell all
about themselves the first week of school. Enclosed is two
“All about Me” instruction pages to help you and your child
create a poster and a picture dictated story book about them.
The children will enjoy “reading” this picture book and telling
their new school friends all about themselves.
Please complete these two projects with your child, and
bring the items to the Back to School Night.
I hope you have a wonderful summer and I look forward to
having your child in my class next year.
God Bless,
Mrs. Sneed
