School Closure Activities
Despite the unusual and unpredictable circumstances we are living in presently, one thing remains the same--your child's reading success! I have enjoyed the weekly parent/student communication by phone and email. Please know if you have any questions about the packets that are sent home, you can contact me at anytime. My contact information is on the Home page of this site. Additionally, it puts a smile on my face to see your child's letters coming in my mailbox each week. I should have another letter out next week so we can continue being pen pals and practicing those great writing skills. I have listed below the weekly activities that are included in each of your packets.
