Mrs.
Mir’s Class
6th Level
Special Announcements
School is almost over and we
are getting ready to end this year with joy and pride. There will be no
homework this week; however, I have a few ideas for you and your child to try
during this summer break.
·
Reading Incentive
program: Several places such as Barnes &Noble, Pizza Hut and the Yuma
County Library offer reading programs in which children are encouraged to read
and in exchange, they may win free books or other prizes.
·
Math Skills
practice: The children must know their times tables before they enter the 6th
level. Every math problem is based on either addition or multiplication. Please
practice them with your children any chance you get.
·
Ideas for writing:
During a vacation, your child can become a reporter and record people’s
reactions to a specific place.
Let
your child be a TV critic and let them write a review of their favorite
program.
Let
them be your personal secretary and let them write your grocery lists.
Encourage
them to keep a summer journal and remind them to write in it daily.
·
Some websites to
keep them entertained :

Both these
websites are free and provide an abundance of information on latest events
