The kindergarten teacher is welcoming families to the new school year and is excited to work with the children. She outlines that students will participate in various educational activities like reading, writing, math, art projects, and learning to work together. While back to school shopping can be exciting, families have the option to send supplies with their child or have the teacher provide them. The letter provides a list of requested supplies and notes that certain other materials will be provided for all students.

1. Welcome to Kindergarten!
Dear Families,
I am very excited to work with your children this year. We will be reading,
writing, singing, listening to stories, doing math activities, making art projects
and learning how to work together.
I know that back-to-school shopping is exciting for the children and families
and can help them get focused on new learning adventures. You have the
option of sending in school supplies or I can provide them for your child. These
materials will be used throughout the year as we complete many exciting and
educational learning experiences and projects. You may be able to take
advantage of the many local stores having back-to-school sales. Many items
would need replaced mid-year.
If you decide to send in supplies, please send in only what is listed below.
Thank you for your assistance in helping to prepare your children for
Kindergarten.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Michael
