Kindergarten Registration

Information about Kindergarten Round-ups for next school year can be found at the link at the top of the blog.

Every GSRP student is ALREADY registered for Kindergarten at their home school.  There is NO need for families to fill out the kindergarten registration forms through the district.

The only information they HAVE TO HAVE is an updated Immunization Record and any information necessary if you have moved.

The health appraisals are a part of registration but are not mandated.

Letter of the Week

Work Time

Turn off those screens and play with some toys, color, paint… anything you can think of!

Planning Time (5 minutes): Build your child’s ability to organize their time by having them make a “plan” with you about what they would like to play with.  Children do this everyday with us at school. It helps children learn to organize their thoughts. Adults make plans all the time to organize their thoughts (shopping lists are made before going to the grocery store, to do lists are made to help plan your day etc..).  

Work Time (45-60 minutes): During work time kids play WITHOUT ELECTRONICS.  Kids can use toys to pretend play, build, and create.

Clean Up (about 15 minutes):  Kids clean up the mess they have made while playing.

Recall Time (5 minutes): Build your child’s memory of events by having your child tell you what they did while they played (ask “tell me how you did that” or “what did you do next?”)
