Parents, after doing so much hard work this year, it is integral that your child does not lose practice or forget what he/she has been learning all year long over the summer. Summer is a long time for our kids…please continue to study math facts and read during the summer. Barnes and Nobles or Borders have great summer workbooks for kids if you would like to pick one up for them!!! You would pick up workbooks for 2nd graders going into 3rd grade for reading and language and 3rd graders going into 4th grade for math. We are very advanced in our math curriculum.
Love always, Mrs. Papelian
