Team Work

 Dear Parents of A2,

 I want to take a moment to share some important insights about your child’s journey in learning English. As we work through reading, writing, spelling, and understanding vocabulary, it’s important to remember that learning a language is a gradual and step-by-step process.

Young learners are building the foundational skills they need to read and comprehend texts, write with confidence, and understand the meaning and usage of new words. These skills are interconnected, and each one strengthens the other. For example, as children read stories, they not only improve their reading abilities but also expand their vocabulary and their imagination. Spelling practice reinforces the correct use of these words, and writing allows them to express their thoughts clearly and creatively.

As we progress, I often incorporate visual aids like pictures to help students associate words with their meanings. This makes learning more engaging and helps reinforce understanding. We also spend time discussing how to use words in sentences, ensuring that students not only know a word’s definition but can apply it in real-world situations.

It’s important to remember that mastering all these skills takes time and patience. Each child will progress at their own pace, and it’s perfectly normal for them to need extra practice or guidance along the way. Your support at home is invaluable during this process. Simple activities like reading together, practicing spelling words, and discussing new vocabulary can greatly enhance your child’s learning experience. I personally don't believe that writing each word multiple times will help children remember the word. I believe words need to be applied in daily conversations to build vocabulary.

I am here to help your child every step of the way, and I encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or concerns about their progress. Together, we can create a supportive environment where your child feels confident and excited to learn.

Thank you for your ongoing support in your child’s educational journey.
