Saint Raphael Kindergarten Christmas Concert Dec. 15, 2010

Go Away Big Green Monster!

Fall Fun!

We have learned so much this fall!

Fall is a very busy time of year for Kindergarten!


We learned new songs, new sight words, collected twigs, leaves, and acorns.

We painted giant orange pumpkins with thick orange finger paint!

We also used our fingers to play learning games on the laptops!

New stories to learn, new letters and words, there is so much to do.....

Did you know that October is Fire Safety Month? We loved our visit from the Bay Village Fire Department!
Important things to know about FireSafety-

Your smoke detector is like your house's nose. It can smell smoke, and let you know if smoke is in your house.  Always make sure your house's nose is working properly, and make sure the batteries do not run out!

Always call 911 if there is an emergency, and someone will come right away to help you!
Never call 911 to order a pizza!

Firefighters are brave and friendly, and they will help us when we need them!

Fun September Memories

Welcome to Kindergarten Kapers!

Welcome to all Kindergarten students and parents of Saint Raphael School!
We are so happy to have you in the Kindergarten family! This blog is set up to share with you our days, the fun things we do, and the many things we learn.

We have been very busy this year with new friends, new classrooms and new schedules!  We are learning letters, numbers and stories! We are tying shoes, climbing up ladders, and sliding down slides!

The teachers and staff of the Kindergarten class thank you for giving us the gift of teaching your children.

Check back often to the blog for fun tips, stories, and snippets of our day to share with you.

Let us introduce you to a friend of the class!
In this post, we will introduce you to a wonderful staff member who cares about the Class of 2019!

She helps Mrs. French, Mrs. Ritzler, and Mrs. Simoson create their lessons, she watches us and keeps us safe on the playground. She helps us during the Kindergarten lunch periods. She is the behind the scenes backbone that keeps the Kindergarten running smoothly.
