Dear kindergarten Families,
Our class is introducing “Buddy Bags” that can go home on a rotating basis. A Buddy Bag is a special bag that may contain activities, books and a stuffed animal or character that goes home with our special leader each day.
Buddy Bags are designed to be fun and informative ways for families to share literacy and learning experiences at home. They are also a way to connect our school family with your home family in meaningful and enjoyable ways. The bags may contain specific theme related books and materials for you to enjoy at home with your child. Some bags are for special occasions or seasons, such as Christmas, and others are to reinforce topics or concepts we are learning about in class.
Please discuss with your child the importance of being responsible and taking good care of the bag when it is their turn. Because the bags are expensive and some items may be difficult to replace, we are asking that you sign this form to participate in the Buddy Bag Project. This is a strictly voluntary program. Our aim is to encourage a life long love of reading. If you and your child would like to participate in our Buddy Bag program please sig and return this form to the school with your child.
Thank you for your interest!
Stephanie Gokarn
