Kyle is done! He is no longer a Pre-K kid, but he is a Kindergartner!! And he is excited! What a fabulous year my little guy had. I think back to a year ago when I struggled with deciding whether to send him to Kindergarten -- which he barely met the deadline for -- or send him to Pre-Kindergarten. I decided I didn't want him spending the first couple of months as a four year old in Kindergarten, I didn't want him to always be a year younger than many kids, smaller on sports teams down the line, the last to drive, etc. I wanted to make sure he started with a firm footing.
I am so glad of the decision I made. Kyle had a wonderful teacher. She was great with him. He learned so much, and I have seen so much evidence of his knowledge. And he LOVED school. I have no doubt that he will head to Kindergarten next year as ready as anyone can be, and he will have gotten the strong foundation this year that will allow him to excel next year and beyond. Great job, Kyle.
Now on to the fun... Kyle ended his school year with a bang. His class had a picnic lunch trip planned to Kids Corner. They were going to ride the bus, play and eat. FUN! Fortunately, it rained. And then poured. And then lightening and thundered. Fortunately, you say?
Well, the *first* attempt at the trip led to activities being planned at school. They had a great indoor picnic and fun time. The parachute was brought out, there were bean bag songs -- you name it.
But the teachers felt bad they missed their trip, so they still got to go the next week! So Kyle's day of fun turned into two days of fun. :) And then, of course, there was the final end of the year picnic for the whole school. What a great way to end things!
Here are pictures from all three events.
