Dear Parents:
Sometimes we get caught up in our busy schedules and may lose sight of the small, yet important conversations with our little ones. It is crucial that our children see we, as parents, value their education and want to hear about THEIR day.
Take just a few minutes each day and engage in a dialogue with your child. Here are a few easy starters:
- "Let’s see what you brought home today…”
- “Show me what you have for homework…Do you need help with it?”
- "What did you read about in Science/Social Studies/ELA/STEAM…”
- “What was the best part of today?...Tell me more…”
- “What did you do in Art/Music/PE/Library/STEAM/Math today?”
Most students strive to do their best. There may be times within the school year when children become frustrated with their own progress. Encourage them to share their thoughts and feelings with you or their teacher. Remind them of how proud you are of them. Each little milestone is a huge accomplishment for children and should be celebrated! Children need to be praised and recognized for the progress they are making.
If at any point in time you would like to discuss your child’s progress, please feel free to reach out to his/her teacher.
As a reminder, Kindergarten registration for the 2019-2020 school year is now open. Please visit the LCSD website for more information.
