Save a Memory

As the end of the school year is quickly approaching, lets work together to give your child something that he/she can keep to remember their Kindergarten experience.  This month's home project is to start work on a time capsule that your child will not open until his/her senior year in high school!

I have a few things already that I would like to place into your child's time capsule- a photo, sample work, a penny with this year's date, and a letter.  I need your help in providing more special memories and in creating the capsule that will hold them. 

Here is your family's assignment...

     1) Have your child bring a shoe box to school by ____.  A large one would be nice because it would hold more.  However, any shoe box will do.

     2) Assist your child in filling out the 'Kindergarten Time Capsule Survey' and return   it to school with your child's time capsule.

     3) Contribute items to place into your child's time capsule.  (Some ideas are listed below to help get you started.) Your contributions to this project will  determine the quality of your child's gift. You have until ___ to  send in your items before the time capsule is sealed.

 Sample Ideas...

  • Sealed letters to your child from you, grandparents, siblings, or significant others in your child's life.
  • A favorite project made during the Kindergarten school year.
  • A small toy that indicates what was popular during this school year.   Please do not go to any expense. Also, make sure your child understands that he/she will not be getting the toy back for 12 years-- We don't want any tears!
  • Anything else that serves as a reminder of your child's year as a kindergartner. Be creative!

We will be decorating and sealing the time capsules at school. Then, during the last week of school, children will bring their capsules home. So also be looking for a safe place to store it for quite a few years!

Please join me in the celebration of your child's life as a kindergartner! I believe this project can be quite meaningful for your child and would appreciate your support and cooperation in making it successful. Please feel free to write or call me with any questions or concerns
