Last Days of Kindergarten...


Samantha had a fun last couple of days of Kindergarten.  One of her last days her class put on a "Kindergarten Sharing" day, where the parents came in and the kids got to show off all of their art work and reading skills and fun thing they've done in the classroom.  It was really fun to watch Sam in her class and see all the things they do (even though I've been volunteering all year and have seen her in action before). Here's Samantha and her teacher, Mrs. Stempson.

At her desk

Excited to show off the science area.  They planted corn and were raising tadpoles.

With her good friend, Sydney.  And little Alexa's in the background.

Had to get a picture with my girl :)  I can't believe she's going into 1st grade now!

She lost a tooth in March and in November.  When they lose teeth, they get to write their names in the tooth for that month.

And, Sam with her other good friend, Desi! 


Another fun activity that went on the last week of school was a Dance Party.  That wasn't the official name, but I can't remember what it was!  Anyway, the kindergarten thru 2nd grade classes got together and danced with the guidance of Mrs. Perry-Hardin, their music teacher.  It was really fun to watch!  They did country line dances, the chicken dance, the electric slide, and many more.

 More dancing!


At last, the last day of school! 


On the last day of school they had a "field day" where they played games outside all morning.  Then, the last 20 minutes of class Mrs. Stempson did a special presentation to move the kids into 1st grade.  She had magic rocks that each child got.  When you rub them, these magic rocks would help them to always remember Kindergarten.  It was pretty cute.  She spun each child around 3 times and *poof* they were 1st graders! 

Having fun with her friends

They were sharing all the memories they have of Kindergarten.


 Samantha and her buddy, Eric.

We had a GREAT first year of school!
