Dear Family,
This page can give you resources and tools to use at home, it is intended to be useful, beneficial and fun for you and your child. My hope is that this page will be easy to use if you are looking for ways to support your child's reading. Sometimes the options listed here might not be the best or most effective strategy for your child. All students learn differently, and if these options are not working please contact me so we can review alternate solutions. I am more than willing to assist you in anything that will help your child be successful at school. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or concerns you may have.
Thank you for your support of literacy at home.
Sincerely,
Maren Studlien
