Learn at Home activities for today:
Tuesday:
Write a Letter:
Invite your child to write a letter to someone. They can draw pictures to create the letter, use their own writing, or share their words with you and you can write for them. If your child chooses to write on their own, celebrate any mark they make. Marks, scribbles, and creative spelling are all essential steps in learning to write. If possible, share the letter with the person your child wrote to.
Share a story with your child about something from their past. Among other things, this could be a story about the first time your child did something new, a funny story about an experience or a time when your child made you proud.
Continued Weekly Activity
Timeline:
Talk about important milestones in your child’s life and create a timeline that reflects a few of these experiences. Think of two to four noteworthy events in the child’s past such as when a child was born or took his/her first steps, began school or an important family event such as a new home or sibling, etc. You can draw or include pictures on the timeline! Please email a picture of any completed work to MsMcGarryCOVID19@gmail.com Thank you to all the students and parents that have sent me pictures of the children's work! I will be adding more pictures as they come in!
