Sierra Vista Wranglers Mrs. Beltran August 2015 Dear Parents: Thank you for all your support and dedication to the education of your children! With you at their side, my students will succeed and shine in kinder. Please help your child complete homework daily and turn in on Fridays. Homework will begin the week of August 10. Story books are optional; reading to your child helps them develop vocabulary, general information about the world, listening, and communication skills. I will be sending a sample reading log and more information on this at a later date. The students that turn in 25 or more book logs, will receive a medal at the end of the year so go do some READING!!! Thanks a lot to all parents who already send the supplies and all paperwork needed. If you had not done so, please send them as soon as possible. Headphones will be used during computer lab and will start the third week of August. Breakfast is being served to all students every day. I recommend students eat at home if they are not good at trying different foods.
