If you are not willing to learn, no

one can help you. If

you are determined to learn, no

one can stop you.

Fami ly Newsletter No. 24 ● February 19 – February 22 , 2019

Your child deserves to

have a strong start to

every school day.

Help your child develop

good punctuality habits by

bringing him/her to class

on time every day!

Children who arrive

after 7:45 a.m. are late

for their class. Late-

arriving children are

missing valuable

education time as well as

disrupting the class that

is already in session.

If your child is tardy,

please know that you will

be asked to sign and date

the time of actual arrival

to class for our records.

Thank you for your

cooperation.

Help Your Child Set High Goals!

Everyone is filled with

high hopes and big expectations for academic

success and achievement.

But, how do you keep up

the learning momentum

and your child’s

motivation? The answer is

to start talking and set

goals together. Please

consider using these tips

in your family’s day-to-day routine, any child at

any age can achieve

greater confidence, self-

esteem and success!

• No matter what your

child’s age or level of

ability, it’s never too

early to teach them the

fundamentals to help them succeed, and this

includes setting goals.

• Sit down with your

child and set goals

together.

• Goals need to be set

at a level that is more

advanced than the

level the child is

currently working at,

but not so advanced that it is unachievable

or beyond reach.

• Share your goals with

family members (e.g.,

over dinner, in the car

ride to school) so that

everyone knows and

can support your

child as they work

towards achieving

these goals.

• Children must be

motivated,

otherwise

nothing can be

accomplished.

It’s essential that

they perceive the

goal as being of

value to them.

• Please know that

positive thinking

is a very

powerful thing,

so if they feel as

though they can

meet the

challenge, they

will!

President’s Day

Observed February 18

¡La Puntualidad es la llave al éxito!

Su niño merece

tener un buen

comienzo cada día

en la escuela.

Ayude a su niño (a) a

desarrollar buenos

hábitos de

puntualidad

trayéndolo (a) a

clase a tiempo.

¡Los niños que lleguen

después de la 7:45 a.m.

se consideran tarde para

su clase!

¡Los niños que llegan

tarde pierden un tiempo

educativo muy valioso y

al mismo tiempo están

interrumpiendo a la

clase que está ya en

sesión!

Si su niño llega tarde,

por favor sepa que se

le pedirá que firme y

feche la hora de

llegada actual a clase

para nuestros

registros.

Gracias por su

cooperación.

Todos están llenos de

esperanzas y grandes

expectativas de éxito

académico y logro.

¿Pero cómo pueden

mantener la motivación

de su hijo? Empieza a

hablar y establecer

metas juntos.

¡Por favor considere

usar estos consejos en la

rutina diaria de su

familia. Cualquier niño

de cualquier edad puede

alcanzar mayor

confianza, autoestima y

éxito!

• No importa la edad

o nivel de habilidad

de su hijo/hija,

nunca es demasiado

temprano o

demasiado tarde

para enseñarles los

fundamentos y

ayudarles a tener

éxito.

• Siéntese con su niño

para ponerse metas

juntos.

• Alcanzables: las metas

deben ser de un nivel

más avanzado que el

que actualmente

trabaja con su niño,

pero no tan avanzado

que es inalcanzable o

fuera de alcance.

• Comparta sus metas

con miembros de la

familia (por ejemplo,

durante la cena, en el

auto camino a la

escuela) para que todos

sepan y puedan apoyar

a su hijo mientras

trabajan hacia el logro

de estos objetivos.

• Los niños deben

sentirse motivados,

si no, no se logra

nada. Es esencial

que vean la meta

como algo de valor

para ellos mismos.

El poder positivo de

pensamiento es algo

muy importante, así

que si se sienten

como si pueden

cumplir el reto, lo

harán.

SI SE PUEDE!

¡Ayude a Su Hijo/Hija a Establecer Metas Altas!

Help your child learn to read! The most commonly used words in English follow few spelling or pronunciation rules and cause children great difficulty when they are beginning to read. If you help your child master these words and know them "by sight”, then s/he will be able to focus on the more important content words. Reading will be more interesting and more enjoyable as a result! Please help your child practice his/her sight word list on a daily basis. It will make a dramatic difference as s/he begins to read.

¡Ayude a su niño a leer! Las “Palabras de Vista” son las palabras que se usan más en inglés. Estas palabras siguen pocas reglas de la pronunciación y son causa de gran dificultad para los niños cuando están comenzando a leer. Si usted ayuda a su niño con estas palabras, entonces su niño o niña podrá centrarse en las palabras más importantes. ¡La lectura será más agradable como resultado! Ayude, por favor, a su niño a practicar esta lista de palabras sobre una base diaria. Esto hará una gran diferencia mientras el/ellas comienzan a leer.
