Show & Tell

Good day all, I pray this email finds you in a good spirit 😊.

For this week’s “Show and Tell” Thursday, March 12,2020; children should carry a picture of their school and talk about it.

Children should be able to:

– Tell the name of their School.

– Where it is located.

– Give the names of their Teachers

– Tell which grade they are in.

– Tell the names of 3 friends.

– Tell something they love about school.

 

If you have any questions, fell free to speak to me during pick up or drop offs.

Thank you

Ready for Reading!

Parents, your child should have come home with an envelope last Friday containing a book and a reading log. I am hoping that each child will make a habit of spending 20 minutes every day reading. These folders should be returned on Thursdays so a new book can be sent home each Friday.

20 minutes may seem daunting, but never fear! It does not have to be all at once, and it does not have to be only your child reading to you. In fact, children learn many skills that will help them learn to read better just by listening to you read to them.

The 20 minutes also does not have to be only the book sent from school. Your child should be able to read this book to you at least once during the week, but they do not have to read it every day. Please let me know if a book I send seems way too hard or easy for your child. We Give Books is a nice website to read books online with a free sign-up. They have many different levels of books as well.

Please do not feel like you must log every single book or every single minute exactly. The reading log is as much for YOU as it is for me. The important thing is that your child is making it a habit to spend time reading and enjoying books every day, not that something is written in the reading log.

Reading Rockets has some good tips for building language skills at home as well. If you would like any additional tips or ideas for helping your child at home, just ask!
