Important Information for February

Greetings, Probstfield Elementary Students and Families:


Thank you so much for sharing your students with us! I hope everyone had a lovely January and are ready for a wonderful February!


Morning Broadcast: Our morning broadcasts have been focused on the having a positive attitude and on how to apologize- ask your child what they have learned about these topics during the morning broadcast.


Expectations: January was a long month! As we all settle in, we know that it is a great opportunity to revist our expectations. Please talk with your students about what the expectations are at school and what they are learning about being a successful student. You are the most important influence in your child's life and we appreciate your support.

Looking to Support Your Child's Learning at Home?

Consider these activities to support your child's learning:


Skip Counting: forwards, backwards, by twos, fives, tens, twenties, hundreds! This helps students of all ages become more proficient math thinkers.

What Goes With? Game: One person picks a number and says to their partner: What goes with ___ to make 10? The other person has to solve and say what number it is. Example: What goes with 3 to make 10? Answer: 7! You can do this for tens, hundreds, even thousands! To make it even more challenging, play with any number!

Letter Fun: When your child is reading a word that is new, encourage them to sound out each letter. Notice letters on signs, in books, and on clothing. Ask your child to tell you the letter and what sound that letter makes.


These activities may seem simple, but they help all students grow their skills and build confidence! Have fun!
