Summer Practice

Today your child came home with summer packets math books.  Earlier in the week they came home with language arts and math packets and a journal.  It is important that your child review their skills and strategies throughout the summer to keep their minds in the game.  They need that balance of learning and playing during June, July, and August
This is an interesting article that was given to me a few years ago.

Your children love to read.  If we miss a day of small group they ask why.
I love that they have this amazing drive to want to read.  As of today every child in Rainbow Valley can read. They are on the path to stay reading on grade level.  If you, as their parents make reading part of everyday this summer you are giving them the biggest gift!
