                           Dear Parents,



                           Your child is involved in learning activities to develop knowledge about
                           the continent of North America. They may be asked to complete several

                           tasks at home. Your support, interest, and cooperation with these
                           activities will support our overall program.
                           Our current lesson is about the physical features of North America. We

                           urge you to talk to your child about the lesson.



                           Here are some activities you can use to enhance and enrich your child’s
                           knowledge.
                                 • Ask your child to tell you two things that they learned from the

                                   lesson.
                                 • Review the map of North America with your child and make sure

                                   they know the name and location of the physical features taught
                                   in the lesson.
                                 • Watch with your child a movie about North America. Ask your

                                   child what looks the same or different from where you live.
                                 • Help your child to research animals of North America
                                   and learn about different animals that live there. Look

                                   for polar bears, bison, armadillos, owls, or other
                                   creatures of interest.



                           Thank you for being our partner in education!


                             Research has shown that children with involved parents score
                             better than others whose parents don't have a role in their
                             education process. Help your child stay brilliant!
