651-771-8494 aruhnke@stjeromeschool.org
Dear Parents
Can you believe this will be the last Ruhnke Review??
Thank you for sharing your children with me for this Kindergarten school year. I am so impressed with them for all they have accomplished—academically, spiritually, physically, emotionally, & mentally. They have come a long way since that first day in Kindergarten!
I want to thank you, parents, also, for all your hard work with your children. I know what it is like to raise a child in today’s world. It is not easy! Please keep working with your child to make improvements and even more steps forward. Summer is the perfect time to do this!!
FREE DRESS ALL NEXT WEEK, JUNE 1-4th
Tuesday, June 1st thru Friday, June 4th, will all be FREE DRESS Days!! Please make sure your child is dressed nicely on Wednesday, May 2nd since we will go to church for mass for the last time this school year. On Thursday, May 3rd, It will be Field Day, so all students should wear appropriate clothes and tennis shoes for outside running races, playing games, and going on the playground. Also, one, or some, of these activities includes water and the children WILL get wet!! If you would please send a second set of clothes for them to change into once we are back inside the school. Thank you!
Send Backpacks
Please send your child’s backpack to school each day next week. There will be much for them to bring home and they will want their backpack. Thank you.
Reading Log
May Reading Logs are Due On June 1st
I will be sending a Summer Reading Log Packet home which includes the months of June, July, & August. Please continue to read throughout the summer. Mrs. Gattman will have a special something in the Fall for all students that participate in summer learning, just bring the completed summer reading packet back to school in September and give it to your teacher!! HAPPY READING!!
PLEASE, Send A Water Bottle, PLEASE!!
PLEASE send a water bottle to school with your child. This next week, June 1-4, we will be going outside more than normal, so the children will NEED drinks and a WATER BOTTLE. Because of Covid, all drinking-fountains are not in working order. Students will get hot and thirsty. Without having a water bottle, it is hard to get a drink, and the school can’t hand out paper cups to 160+ students many times per day. Thank you.
Field Day!!
Thursday, June 3rd is Field Day. Please make sure your child is wearing tennis shoes and comfortable clothes for outside running around. Also, send a second set of clothes since they WILL get WET!! They will want to change when we come back inside the school. Thank you.
For Field Day each grade level and group is to wear a certain color for their team. These are the teams/colors they should wear:
RED TEAM: William, Lukas, Henry, Zee Zee, Eh Klu T., Dah E., Cecilia, Sofia
BLUE TEAM: Lu Pway, Evan, Francis, Eh Plae S., Dexter, Hser Nay S., Ku Nay H., Maria, Lydia
Memory/Sight Words:
Practice, Practice, Practice over the summer!!
Your child will have approximately four(4) Memory/Sight words to learn each week. Memory/Sight words are words we find in every sentence we read. Students must know these words to be able to read a sentence. Students should memorize these words, NOT sound them out. Please practice these words(4 each week) every day for 10 minutes, both reading them and spelling them.
