Welcome to Kindergarten!  I am Ms. Grenawalt and this will be my 25th year of teaching with the Omaha Public Schools.  I have taught Kindergarten, First and Second Grade.  I earned my Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Nebraska at Omaha with an endorsement in Early Childhood.  I recently graduated with a Master’s Degree in Literacy.  Spending time with my two beautiful daughters, being outdoors, shopping and reading are some of the things I enjoy the most.  I am looking forward to a new and exciting school year!

Your child will learn many new things in Reading.  They will learn to

*identify upper and lower case letters of the alphabet

*produce single consonant and short vowel sounds  

*recognize color, number, and high frequency words

*self select and independently "read" fiction & nonfiction text  

*listen to fiction & nonficton text to demonstrate understanding
