HOME OF THE ROOM 3 SUPERSTARS!

I would like to thank all of you for your flowers, fruit, lunches and kind words during Teacher Appreciation Week. You are very caring folks and it is my pleasure to work with your children.

We still have lots to cover between now and June. You can help by being sure time is made each day for Home Reading, Journals, spelling words and daily math. Work should be turned in ON TIME!

How Can I Help My Child at Home?

Does your child have his/her OWN library card?

Monthly trips to the library are fun and encourage home reading.

Have your child write notes to family members.

Use coins to practice counting amounts to one dollar. Set up a play store at home and have your child count out the correct amount.

Review all contents each week. Sign and return along with any necessary information in a timely manner.

Monday: Computer PE

Tuesday: Art

Wednesday Library

Thursday: Science

Friday: PE

Please CLEARLY mark lunches boxes, backpacks, jackets & sweatshirts with your child's name.

Children need to come dressed for PE. No sandals!!

Library books should be returned by Tuesday each week.

Reading logs are sent home each Friday and due back the following Friday.

Communication is important. Please feel free to e-mail me at peggyray17@aol.com
