Effective communication between parents and teachers is key to student success. For me the best way to keep parents informed is to send home a weekly class newsletter. A newsletter helps parents keep track of upcoming school activities and what kids are learning in school. I like to send home a hard copy in take home folders and email a copy to parents. I include a little peek at our week, upcoming dates, the high frequency words we will be learning, important reminders, and our daily specials schedule.
If you need help creating a newsletter for your class I made my newsletter editable. Click here or the picture above for the newsletter template.
