Dear Families,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As of now, school is closed until April 13th. This was an unexpected surprise for all of us. I am really going to miss my students over the next month. During these unprecedented times we are doing our best as a district to navigate how instruction will be provided moving forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d like to offer as much support to you as I can from a far.\u00a0 Please feel free to e-mail me at anytime with questions as I will be checking my inbox frequently: sokoloa@dearbornschools.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the most important things we work on at school is following a schedule and routine. You can reinforce this at home by creating a routine to help your child stay on track. I cannot <\/strong>express the importance of keeping a consistent bedtime routine so that when we do return to school your children are awake and alert during the school day. Children ages 3-5 are recommended to get 10-13 hours of sleep per night. Given our school day starts at 8:35 and most students are on the bus before then, starting your child\u2019s bedtime routine between 7-8 would be best to ensure they are getting the recommended amount of sleep each night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To get you started, below are links to the YouTube videos we listen to each morning during circle time:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
