Friday Letters
Dear families,
Each Friday, your child will write a letter to you or someone else in their household, that talks about the events that happened during the week. Each week, I would like whoever they wrote to, to respond to their letter and return it to school the following Monday. I will keep these letters in a file and at the end of the year, I will bind them into a second-grade keepsake of all the things they learned and did over the course of the year. Please do your best to respond to and return the letters. This is also a great way to see the progress your little writer makes from the beginning of the year until the end of second grade. The first few letters that come home are guided so I can show them the format that I would like them to write their letters in. These letters will have sentence starters that your child finishes with their own words (i.e. This week of school was ________)
After the first few letters, I will taper back my guidance and mostly talk them through the letters so that they are as authentic as possible. This is where the magic begins. I am very excited to see your child grow as a writer this year and I can’t wait for you to hear about all the exciting learning we do during our school day.
Any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask.
Best,
Ms. Bethany
