What Will You Learn This Summer?
This summer vacation, teach your children the joy of reading. Here’s some suggestions:
Have a quiet place with reading, writing and craft supplies
Go hunting for used books – garage sales, Good Will stores -- even when you’re on vacation
Encourage your child to read whatever’s in front of him/her: road signs, cereal boxes, etc.
Visit the library every week
Read in front of your children
Read aloud to your child
Have your children read to you
Have your child write out a grocery list, read a recipe
Sing with your children
Do word games together, play board games
Make a journal of your vacation or of a special day
Now, what fun ideas can you come up with to teach the joy of math?

A Final Thank You!
Elizabeth Ziegler School always has something exciting going on. This is possible because members of our staff volunteer their time and energy to organize and supervise events for EZ students such as field trips, track and field and other extra-curricular activities that reach beyond the classroom.
We are very fortunate, as well, to have a group of dedicated parents who help with home reading, Strong Start, pizza days, fieldtrips and many other activities.
Thank you, thank you, and thank you. Our school would not be the same without you.
