Many of you are busy with the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. It is first and foremost, a time for family and friends to get together and share in the spirit of living and giving! Over these next two weeks, your child's journey of learning can still continue whenever they wish or choose to do so. If you are wondering what to do, here are some suggestions you can share with your child:
Read - Why not get into a good book that you may have been putting off? Have your child think about all the elements of a novel that we have been examining with our own class novel. Do they notice the same? Or, just relax and read for pure pleasure
Write - Be creative! Use their thinking book, a journal, a notebook and write a story, their day's events or even their hopes and dreams! Ask them to think about some goals they would like to achieve either for school or in their personal life.
Create - Think about our past unit on Human Organ Systems. Look up some interesting experiments on past systems we have studied, or systems they would like to study when we return in January. See if they can develop their own independent inquiry or create their own model of a system that interests them.
Math - Keep up their skills by visiting Google classroom. I will be posting problem solving questions throughout the next two weeks. Have your child visit regularly and submit their answers. Also, don't forget to visit the Prodigy website. Each student has a login name and password to play this math game.
Enjoy!
Parents and Guardians: You are all invited to our school Lunar New Year Celebration in the Gym on Wed., Feb. 3 at 9:30 am-10:30 am. I hope to see you there to welcome in the Year of the Monkey!
