Dear
Parents,
Here
we are at the end of the second quarter of school. It is hard to believe that that the year is about half
over. All the children have shown
gains since the beginning of the year, which are exciting to see. It is always around this time of year
that the children move from being second graders to truly being third
graders. Their confidence and
skill begin to solidify and they start to take off as independent
learners. While there has been
much progress from September, there are a couple of items I would like to
continue to ask you to do at home to support your child. First, review his/her
assignment notebook each night to help with the pacing of assignments as well
as making sure assignments are completed on time. Second, if your child has
forgotten an assignment or book help them figure out a strategy for making up
the assignment. Third, please be sure to send in a note if there is any change
in your child’s dismissal. This includes going home with a friend, enrichment
classes, or being picked up by you. Please understand this is a safety issue
for your child. We need to ensure
that all children are being dismissed correctly each afternoon, and your help
with notes for your child, helps us do this successfully.
Thank
you for all you do at home to help your child.
Mrs.
DiNardo
