Dear Parents and Families,
Wow, what a GREAT year! We have covered a lot of material and participated in many fun
and exciting activities. We started to develop skills needed for the next level.
Each of your children has brought such joy and happiness to our classroom. The Shooting Star teachers were so fortunate to have such a wonderful group of children this school year. They are like our own children. They all have touched our lives in very positive and rewarding ways. We hope as the years go by, we will continue to keep in touch.
It has been our pleasure getting to know not only your child, but you as well. Having parental support and open lines of communication is an essential part of any successful school year. Thank you for all you have done to make our year so fulfilling and memorable.
As your child moves from Shooting Star to Milky Way, there are some very important things you can do to help them succeed. Engage in meaningful conversations with your child everyday. Take time to really listen to what they have to say. Read to and listen to your child read. Ask questions, make predictions, make life to text connections as you read. Help your child develop a sense of working and solving problems independently. Talk about ways and start practicing getting and staying organized. These little things will lead to big successes next year.
Again, thank you for a wonderful year. Have a fantastic winter and see you spring!
Ms. Marlyn
