Using the Family Letter
Using the Family Letter
We realize how vital the school-to-home connection is, and our goal is to make building that connection easier for you, so we’ve created a letter you can share with your students' families. The letter introduces parents to SuperSTEM, and provides simple tips for sharing the joy of reading and STEM learning with their child.
The Family Letter is written especially to encourage children and parents to read and talk about SuperSTEM together. It gives simple discussion starters for different stories and online resources paired with the issue. It also provides an easy way to send home your classroom password, so families can read the digital issue together.
You’ll find the Family Letter link at the top of every issue page:

- Post it on a class webpage
