- Just as parents teach their children to ride a bike or brush their teeth, children need their parents to teach them how to manage their emotions and behavior. Discipline and limit-setting provide guidelines and support for children until they have learned how to manage their emotions and behavior without their parents’ help. When parents discipline children by setting limits, they are not just eliminating bad behavior, they are creating an opportunity to teach their child about appropriate behavior.
- After you've read a story together two or three times, skip a word or two. Ask your youngster to fill in the missing word or words. Hint: This works especially well with rhyming stories.
- The Internet is filled with fun ways for children to build their vocabulary. Here are a few sites that will get your youngsters excited about learning. (Remember to monitor your children's time on the Inernet and review each site to determine its appropriateness.)

Dear parents,
Well, it is our last week of school together. Tomorrow is our end of the year party at Machado Park. Students are allowed to wear free dress. Also, some other differences in the schedule are that there will be no Wednesday mass, because we will have our final student mass on Thursday morning instead. Thursday will be a 10:00 dismissal, and the last day of school.
Please be sure the check out the important dates listed below, and let me know if you have any questions or concerns. My door is always open!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Humphries
