Tiger Talks
January 7th-11th
News To Know
I hope you enjoyed time with family and friends over the holiday. We will get back into full swing on Tuesday, January 8th. The first semester is about building foundational skills to attach future learning to in each grade-level. Now that we are entering the second semester, teachers and students will be honing those skills to apply and master the grade-level skills. Please continue to keep up with your students grades in Family Access and always feel free to contact your child's teacher with any concerns or suggestions for supporting your child at home. You cannot go wrong with reading with your child every night and practicing math facts and counting skills for the younger students. We look forward to a great 2019 Spring Semester.

It's a Great Day to be a Brock Tiger!
Welcome Back to 2019
We are excited to have your children back for the new year! I look forward to seeing all the learning and growth that will continue to take place. As we jump back into school after a long (and hopefully refreshing) break, there may be a transition period for your children. Some children may struggle to the adjustment of being back at school with school hours and responsibilities! Below are some ways to help your child adjust back to school, show GRIT and have a positive start!
Bedtimes- Begin preparing for bedtimes 15-30 minutes earlier than normal so your child can have time to settle physically and mentally until back on school track!
Routines- Teach children night time routines that help better everyone’s morning! Have children lay out clothes for the next day, put prepared backpacks by the door, have lunches made and packed, etc. This will help better the morning and better the start of the day!
Conversations- Talk to your child about school, their day, what is going on in class, friends, etc! Questions like “what was the best part of your day?” and “tell me 2 things you liked about your day and 2 things you didn’t,” can help open up conversation.
Read-Read with your child every night!
Questions- At anytime if you have questions or concerns for us, feel free to reach out! YOU are our Ann Brock Family and it’s great for students to see we are all on the same team, working together... for them!
