End of the Year

Dear parents and guardians,

I can't believe that it is already the end of 2016! It has been wonderful getting to know each one of the students and teaching them in the last four months.

The only homework for the break is to continue at least 15 minutes of daily reading and log it on the reading log in the red binder. I have sent some math puzzle sheets. Students can choose to use them if they wish to practice some addition and substraction.

Here are some ideas  to continue supporting your child over the break.

1. Write picture journal entries to practice rich sentence writing skills.

2. Write interesting sentences using the words from the dictations.

3. Practice basic operation skills learned in grade 1 and 2. Students should be comfortable doing addition and subtraction of single and two-digit numbers as we will start dealing with three-digit numbers.

Here are some helpful websites.
