Saludos padres, madres y estudiantes:

Esta semana deseo compartir con ustedes algunas recomendaciones de la psicóloga clínica Delmara Rivera, a la

hora de estudiar con sus hijos, en especial con aquellos que tienden a distraerse con facilidad:

1. Proveer un espacio con iluminación apropiada y sin distracciones (como televisión o música).

2. Para ayudar a organizar sus tareas y responsabilidades, utilice una pizarra que actualice a diario.

3. Mantenga una estructura precisa y clara de lunes a viernes. Actividades como juegos de vídeo en la

semana no son apropiadas ya que el menor puede presentar mayor cansancio mental.

4. Haga primero aquellas tareas que no requieren el uso de tecnología y luego las que son en Internet.

5. Retire efectos electrónicos como celulares a la hora de hacer tareas. También se recomienda que en la

noche no le deje el celular en su habitación, pues podría usarlo inadecuadamente hasta altas horas de la

madrugada y tener dificultad para levantarse al día siguiente.

Page 2: Washburn Weekly Update Week of August 22nd to 26 , 2016€¦ · Washburn Weekly Update Week of August 22nd to 26th, 2016 Welcome back parents’ meeting: For parents with students

6. Procure conocer cuáles son las áreas de necesidad de tu hijo, para que se asegure de que el colegio le

brinde los acomodos razonables justos y necesarios.

Recuerden que es importante contar con las reevaluaciones psicoeducativas. Estas deben realizarse como

mínimo cada dos años para monitorear el progreso del estudiante.

“La verdadera educación consiste en obtener lo mejor de uno mismo. ¿Qué otro libro se puede estudiar mejor

que el de la Humanidad?

Maestra: Sra. Lymaris Rivera Materia: Español Semana del 22 al 26 de agosto de 2016

Comentarios: ¡Saludos! Es importante que repasen el material a diario con los niños para que se

acostumbren a una rutina de estudio. En Kindergarten, se envía el libro o la libreta aunque no tengan

tarea para que repasen lo que hemos trabajado en el salón. Primer grado tiene en su libreta una tabla de

cómo suenan las consonantes con las vocales, es importante que repasen todos los días por lo menos los

sonidos que ya hemos estudiado en el salón, esto les ayudará con la fluidez de lectura. Además, estaremos

trabajando una tarea de desempeño en el cuaderno de Metáfora del abecedario, el mismo tiene un valor

de 25pts. Parte de la tarea es en el salón y otra en la casa más adelante les daré detalles en la libreta.

Comments:

Bonjour Parents: The students are really motivated with learning a third language. It is

my upmost recommendation that you listen to them as they practice.

Also, it is highly recommended that they have a dictionary of French-English so they can look up for words on their own time and seek self-improvement.

Dear Parents and Students,

This week we are working with “Rio 2016 Olympics”. Students are working with the Puerto

Rico Olympic Team. This week we will work with an athlete that the student will choose. They

will write about the athlete and look for information about the same.

Important note for parents with students in Kinder to 11th grade: Please make sure to pay

your child’s TechnoKids license so he or she will be ready for the class. I will be assigning the

username and password for the eBook license only to the students that already paid for it.

Thank you for your support.
