If your child has mastered all their letters and sounds, your child has been bringing home books in their book bag. Please have your child read their book each night.

Ideas to do after your child finishes their book:

-find sight words in the book

-ask your child questions about the book

-retell the story in order

Please make sure your child puts their book back in their book bag and brings their book bag to school every day!

Below are math skills you can practice at home with your child.

Number Writing 1-10

Number recognition to 1-10

Counting to 100

Please make sure your child is practicing their letters and sounds each night using their green ABC cards! Once they are mastered, your child will begin to bring home guided reading books.

Please also make sure your child is practicing their blue sight word cards each night! Below are the sight words that have already been introduced in class.

I, and, can, my, to, do, see, the, go, like, no, so,

A few other things to have your child practice at home:

-opening snacks

-plugging their headphones into their ipad

- tying shoes

Your child met their 5th grade buddy on Friday. They will come home with their "Getting to know you" sheet on Monday. You can stick it on the fridge and use it for future reference.

Each class is in need of hand sanitizer, clorox wipes, and foam hand washing soap! If you would like to donate these items we would greatly appreciate it! :)

Below are some other items we are in need of. Please use the link below if you wish to donate. We appreciate it so much!

Please make sure you send a bite sized snack with your child daily. We don't have lunch until 12:10 so your child will be very sad and hungry if they don't have a snack to eat.

Please create a routine with your child to make sure your child's Ipad is charged each night and brought to school each day!

We download apps together as a class. Please don't let your child download any apps at home!

We always tell our students to keep their book in their backpack at all times (unless they are reading it) so it is always here at school when it's time for the library!

Below is the day your child's class will go to the library each week! YOUR CHILD WILL RETURN THEIR BOOK THE DAY BEFORE THEIR LIBRARY DAY! Please make sure your child brings their book that day so they can check out a new book the following day.

Arington: Wednesday

Lind: Thursday

Mack: Thursday

Richardson: Tuesday

If you find your child must go home a different way than planned, please notify the office by a phone call by at least 2:00 p.m. Teachers and our front office staff do not always have access to email or are busy teaching or helping others. A phone call is required. Sometimes we have only one person in the front office, so we want to provide ample time to be able to meet your needs.
