    Throughout the school year, if you ever have questions, please don't hesitate to send an email or call me and I will be in touch with you as soon as possible. Emailing is definitely one of the easiest ways to communicate along with the Parent Square App.  Parent Square lets us stay in touch about important things regarding your child and the happenings in the school/classroom.

    FACTS-FACTS-FACTS-FACTS-FACTS
    Our students in 1st grade will be learning their basic addition and subtraction facts .   Please do your child a huge favor and give them your time every day to practice.  The only way your child will learn these facts is with follow up practice at home to reinforce all the work we are doing with them in school.
     
     
     
    Reading ~ Reading ~ Reading ~ Reading 
     
    Parents, please make the time to read to your children.  Our kids grow up so very fast and soon you will miss being able to sit with them cuddled up next to you enjoying stories.  Plus, this can be such an awesome bonding time with your whole family!
    I will be sending home letter pages, tricky word pages, nonsense words, and fluency passages frequently along with take home pages from our reading skills activity book.  Please practice these sounds/words/reading stories with your children.  Later in the year, our spelling lists will start with our reading program.

    Thank you for all that you do every day as parents and family members to make McKinley Elementary School a successful place for your child!
