Parent Newsletter Template

Templates are crazy important for teachers! Creating templates can be one of your biggest time savers during the school year. If your district requires you to upload lesson plan templates, like mine then you might want to make one.. or a few different ones depending on how your class is laid out. For example, since I am teaching Aleks math I have a lesson plan template for regular direct instruction days, a template for computer lab days, and a basic template for anything in between.

Another great template to have is a parent newsletter template. If like me, you want to keep parents updated on the happenings in your classroom, you should spend some time creating parent newsletters. Whether you want to do them monthly, biweekly, or every week, this is a great tool to have in your back pocket. It opens the lines of communication between parent and teacher, and it gets parents on the same page. It informs them of what they could be doing to help their child succeed, it informs them of what their child should be doing to be successful, and it informs them of what you are doing to help their child be successful as well.

Therefore, I wanted to share with you my parent newsletter template. This is a free download at my TpT store, and I hope that it saves a great amount of time for you during the school year.
Just fill in the particulars, and you are ready to hit send!

... and please! Share with me any ideas you might have regarding parent newsletters. 
I'd love to hear about them!
We're working together to make our classrooms a better place.
