Welcome to Damascus Elementary’s 2017 Summer Bingo Challenge
Dear Parents, Guardians and Students:
The purpose of the summer BINGO Challenge is to encourage students to become lifelong learners in reading, writing, and math and prevent the “Summer Slide”- children who read during the summer gain reading skills, while those who do not often slide backward. The Bingo Challenge is intended to provide fun and engaging ways to build their independent learning skills.
How to Play BINGO
•Student first and last name, grade entering in the fall and teacher name should be filled out at the top of the BINGO sheet.
•Complete the activities on each math and reading BINGO card.
•A parent or adult needs to initial each square when the student completes an activity.
•Student should then lightly color each square when the activity is complete.
•Earn BINGO by completing 5 squares across, down, or diagonally.
•Keep track of all the books you read over the summer and record them on the reading log.
Please join Damascus Elementary School in providing support and encouragement to make reading, writing and math a part of your child’s summer by participating in our Summer BINGO Challenge. How many BINGO’s can you earn?
Sincerely,
Damascus Elementary Staff
