La clave del éxito no está en acciones aisladas, está en acciones en conjunto y trabajo en equipo” Sra. Norma I. Colón Torres ************************************************************************************************** Sra. Magaly Jiménez Peña Trabajadora Social Saludos padres, madres y estudiantes: Esta semana deseo compartir con ustedes algunas recomendaciones de la psicóloga clínica Delmara Rivera, a la hora de estudiar con sus hijos, en especial con aquellos que tienden a distraerse con facilidad: 1. Proveer un espacio con iluminación apropiada y sin distracciones (como televisión o música). 2. Para ayudar a organizar sus tareas y responsabilidades, utilice una pizarra que actualice a diario. 3. Mantenga una estructura precisa y clara de lunes a viernes. Actividades como juegos de vídeo en la semana no son apropiadas ya que el menor puede presentar mayor cansancio mental. 4. Haga primero aquellas tareas que no requieren el uso de tecnología y luego las que son en Internet. 5. Retire efectos electrónicos como celulares a la hora de hacer tareas. También se recomienda que en la noche no le deje el celular en su habitación, pues podría usarlo inadecuadamente hasta altas horas de la madrugada y tener dificultad para levantarse al día siguiente.

7th, 8th Review what we have learned during these past few weeks and keep learning new verbs. We are going to start making complete sentences.
Comments:
Bonjour Parents: The students are really motivated with learning a third language. It is
my upmost recommendation that you listen to them as they practice.
Also, it is highly recommended that they have a dictionary of French-English so they can look up for words on their own time and seek self-improvement.
