Hello Parents!

I hope you are all adjusting to remote learning and working alongside your child! I miss my students terribly and I cannot wait until we can return to school and our normal routines! There are several things that you and your child can do during this time to help them.

I have sent packets out with work and information for you and your child. I have attached a social story that you can read to them and help explain to them about the changes. I have also included a News2You article that we would have read in class.

Please check your emails and return the forms requested. You can take a picture of them with your phones and send them back to me as an attachment. These forms are important for us to get back.

There are also several things you can do at home to help your child. The weather has been beautiful and we loved to go outside for recess. Some things you can do are:

Blow bubbles
Make a hopscotch board with chalk and count, write their names on the sidewalk
Make rock piles and determine which has more or less
Count flowers in your yard
Go for a walk
Talk about colors you see outside
Fold laundry-washcloths, hang shirts, etc.
Pour glasses of water
Set the table
Use a broom to sweep
Follow a recipe and make scrambled eggs, peanut butter and jelly sandwich, cupcakes
Use a microwave
Help put sheets on the bed
Type their name on the computer keyboard or tablet screen
Pretend to buy objects at home with play money
Color a picture
Make play-doh
Use scissors to cut out shapes
Listen to songs and dance
Read books aloud
Brush teeth

Check out some of the websites I have sent you. The students really enjoy them and most companies have offered free trials during the stay at home order.

I hope everyone stays safe and healthy during this time. If you need anything, please email me and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
