PANORAMA FAMILY-SCHOOL RELATIONSHIP SURVEY
Helping students do their best in school requires a team effort! Parents, students, and schools all play important roles in this process. To help all of us learn how to make your child's schooling experience as positive and beneficial as possible, Panorama Education will be administering their student, family, and staff feedback surveys starting next week. This change from how we have done the surveys in the past, will allow for Jeffco comparisons to national benchmark data.
The survey will open on January 30th. The survey link and QR code will be sent out in Jeffco communication next week and we will also be sharing it in our next newsletter. We will also have some paper copies available at school for those of you that would prefer to fill the survey out that way.
The survey are all anonymous and we encourage all families to please fill one out! We value your feedback!
FAMILY ENGAGEMENT NEWS
Help your child do well in school! Try a new idea every day! Here are a some suggestions from The Parent Institute on things you can try with your child every day to help them do well in school!
Retelling Enhances Reading
Research shows that retelling stories they've read helps students become more thoughtful readers. As your child retells a story, offer open ended prompts, such as "What happened next?" If your child doesn't remember, just say, "Let's go back and read that part again." Your child will learn that this is often necessary to read things more than once to fully grasp them.
Have math fun with words
Try this fun family math puzzle: Give each letter of the alphabet a monetary value. A is one cent, B is two cents, etc. Next ask:
- Whose name is worth the most?
- Who can think of a jewel that's worth the most? Is gold worth more than rust?
- How many words can you think of that are worth exactly $1?
- What is the shortest word you can find that is worth the most?
Please do not hesitate to reach out if have any questions or concerns.
