Weekly at-home reminders


Please note that in any given week, teachers will have covered
most, or all, of the material mentioned, and some sections will be a
bit ahead and others a bit behind, due to days off, etc., but all
sections will complete all of the material, on time.

• Practice reading (English and Arabic), spelling and mental math


each night, as daily revision is important, for comprehension,
fluency, intonation and pronunciation.
• Ideas to practice spelling:
• rainbow spelling (draw a rainbow and write a word in each 7
colors)
• spelling songs
• fill in the missing letter
• unscramble
• make sentences
• hang-mouse
• spin the wheel (can find a link online)
• Reading also includes books for pleasure.
Readers are Leaders!!!
• Students who get enough sleep are more alert the next day,
and understand more of the material presented, in class,
therefore have to revise less than if they were sleepy in class.
Please go to bed early.

• Be sure to pack a healthy snack and lunch, for the next day.
• Healthy foods include fruits, vegetables, sandwiches, yogurt,
milk and water.

• As you know, chips of any kind or size are not to be brought to


school, as well as no cookies, cakes, and candies. We would
like to promote healthier eating. Fruits and veggies are great
snacks.
• Drinks must be in plastic bottles, not glass.
