Green folder
Please ensure that the green folders are sent to school on Mondays and Fridays, containing completed homework assignments and the reading log. Incomplete or missing homework will negatively impact your child's academic performance.
Show and Tell Update
We have a class of 23 students, and completing Show and Tell requires two class periods. For this reason, we have decided to alternate presentations by gender each week. This week, January 23, 2026, only the boys will be participating in Show and Tell. The girls will present Next week. Jazakumallah Khairan for your understanding.
IXL Leaderboard Recognition
Top performers on the IXL Leaderboard will be announced every Monday, based on their achievements from the whole week.
Reading Comprehension
Students will benefit from using Raz-Kids to strengthen their reading comprehension skills. I'm integrating storytelling into our classroom activities to strengthen students' comprehension skills. If you prefer your child to read physical books at home, I encourage you to support their comprehension by discussing key story elements. Consider asking questions such as: Who are the main characters? What is the setting? What problem do they face? How is it resolved? What is the conclusion? What lesson was learned?
Monthly Reading Recognition:
Reading winners will be announced at the end of each month, based on the total number of hours logged. Recognition is awarded for overall reading time, regardless of the platform used—whether through traditional books or digital tools like Raz-Kids.
Morning work challenge:
The Morning Work Challenge is a monthly review packet designed to reinforce key skills through daily in-class practice. While the packet is not graded, students are encouraged to complete it thoughtfully and consistently. At the end of the month, outstanding work is recognized based on the quality of writing, tracing, drawing, and coloring. This initiative promotes engagement, creativity, and a strong work ethic.
