🌈 Mark Your Calendars — Kindness Week Is Coming! 🌈
📅 February 16–February 20Get ready to sprinkle kindness like confetti! 💫 During Kindness Week (2/16–2/20), we invite everyone to show kindness every single day—through your words, your actions, and yes… even your outfits! 👕✨
We’ll be dressing up all week long, spreading cheer, lifting each other up, and reminding one another just how powerful a little kindness can be. From smiles in the hallway to helping hands and positive words, every act—big or small—matters. 💙
🐾 Pennies for Puppies 🐾
Kindness doesn’t stop with people! From February 9–27, we will be collecting Pennies for Puppies to help support our local animal shelter. Bring your spare change—pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters… anything helps! Every coin adds up and makes a big difference for animals in need. 🐶🐱Let’s come together to make our school a place where kindness shines, joy is shared, and everyone feels seen and valued—both in our community and beyond.
💕 Be kind. Dress kind. Spread kindness everywhere. 💕

To help ensure the safety of all students, families, and staff, we are asking that if your child is a drop off/pickup student, please leave your dogs at home during this time.
While we have not had any incidents involving dogs, we want to be proactive in maintaining a safe environment for everyone. We know that dogs can be very protective of their families and children, and we want to avoid any potential situations where a dog may jump out of a vehicle or become startled during drop-off or pickup.
We appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and consideration as we work together to keep our school community safe.

🔤💙 Love Our School Week Spotlight: Fundations at Park and Hulet! 💙🔤
At Park and Hulet Elementary, we’re passionate about helping our youngest learners build a strong foundation in reading and writing — and our Fundations phonics program is a key part of that success! 📚✨
Fundations is a structured literacy program for Pre-K through third grade that provides explicit, systematic instruction in foundational reading and spelling skills. Developed by Wilson Language Training, it uses a multisensory approach to teach critical concepts like phonemic awareness, phonics, word structure, spelling, and handwriting.
💡 Key Components of Fundations:
🎧 Phonemic Awareness: Students learn to hear and manipulate individual sounds in spoken words.
🔠 Phonics & Word Study: Explicit instruction on letter-sound relationships, digraphs, blends, syllable types, and reading strategies.
✏️ Spelling: Students learn to segment and spell words using phonics patterns and high-frequency words.
🖋️ Handwriting: Teaches proper letter formation for both manuscript and cursive writing.
📖 Fluency & Comprehension: Builds fluency and introduces comprehension strategies like visualization and retelling.
🧩 How We Implement Fundations:
👩🏫 Tier 1 Instruction: Used daily with the whole class to give every student a strong start in literacy.
👥 Tier 2 Support: Small-group instruction helps reinforce and strengthen skills for students who need extra practice.
🕐 Daily Lessons: Short, engaging sessions combine teacher-led instruction with hands-on, multisensory activities.
📊 Assessment: Teachers use progress checks to monitor growth and ensure every student’s success.
We’re proud to celebrate programs like Fundations during Love Our Schools Week — because when we build a solid foundation in reading, we’re setting our students up for lifelong success! 💙✨
