Dear Parents,
Our class is off to a great start this school year! To ensure that your child has a successful year and meets the requirements to advance to the next grade, our district has developed standards that each child must master. I focus my lessons on those skills listed in each standard to make sure your child receives the proper instruction for those skills. During this school year, our class will be working with activities in reading/language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. We will be completing activities that provide practice to ensure mastery of these important skills. You can play an active role in your child’s education. There are many things that you can do to help your child gain a good education.
To help your child, please consider the following suggestions:
Provide a quiet place for your child to study or do homework. Make sure your child has all the supplies necessary to complete his/her work.
Set a time for your child to study or do homework. This will help your child manage his or her time better.
Go over the activity’s directions together. Make sure your child knows what he or she is supposed to do.
Give help when needed, but remember that the activity is your child’s responsibility.
Check the activity when it is done. Go over any parts your child may have had trouble completing and make a notation informing me of the difficulty so that I can redeliver the lesson.
Help your child study for tests by asking sample questions or going over the material to be covered..

Review all of the work your child brings home, and note improvements as well as activities that need reviewing.
Together we can help your child maintain a positive attitude about the activities while ensuring academic growth and success. Let your child know that each activity provides an opportunity to have fun and to learn. Above all, enjoy this time you spend with your child. He or she will feel your support, and skills will improve with each activity’s completion!
