🗣️ Oral language 🗣️ is the process of learning how to communicate ideas through spoken words. Parents, teachers, and other adults can support oral language development by encouraging children to engage in purposeful conversations. One fun way to do this is with the game 5 Second Battle. Provide your child or even an adult family member or friend with a category from the list, then see if they can name 3 items from that category within 5 seconds. Younger students may need 30 or 60 seconds. Continue playing with categories of your own and enjoy the laughing and learning!
👀 SPOTTED in a local store this week: SCHOOL SUPPLIES! ✏️📏📒🖇️🖍️
Don't worry, Vann families...we've got you! All supplies from the district supply list will be provided for Vann students and be ready in their classrooms on the first day of school. All you'll need is a backpack 🎒(and a lunch box if you plan to send lunch from home)!
The world belongs to those who READ!
One of the best ways to keep learning happening during the summer is to READ! Head to the library or bookstore and find some books! You just might see some of our Vann staff's favorites!
We believe in you, Vann kids! 🤩
When the summer days get hot and you need to move activities indoors, don't overlook the benefits of coloring! It isn't just fun--it's a calming & creative brain break that can reduce anxiety, boost focus, and help kids reset. It's also beneficial for adults, so grab a coloring book or download some free coloring pages and get the whole family coloring!
Summer is a great time for kids in the kitchen! From meal planning and reading recipes, to gathering and measuring ingredients, there's so much to be learned by trying a new recipe or old favorite. Here are some ideas to get your culinary creativity flowing! Bon appetit! 🧑🏻🍳👩🏾🍳
Rise & shine, Vann fam, and tell us your favorite breakfast food! 🍳🥞🥣🍌🥓
SPECIAL RECORDS TO BE DESTROYED
On July 7, 2025, the Conway Public School District will destroy Special Education records of students who graduated, moved or were dismissed from Special Education services in the district between January 1, 2019 and June 30, 2019. This process is carried out in compliance with federal and state laws. Students, parents and/or guardians may obtain any data from folders prior to July 7, 2024, by calling the Special Education office at (501) 450-6634, extension 0303 or emailing at records@conwayschools.info.
We can't wait to see you in August, Vann families, but for a few more weeks...enjoy your SUMMER! 🏖️
If you don't have plans to go anywhere this summer, you can create your own fun experiences at home! This week can be Water & Ice Week. Temperatures are on the rise, so it's the perfect time to learn about science from these two very basic supplies!
⭐ Dare to be different! ⭐
What could be better the first official weekend of summer than homemade ice cream! Help your child assemble the ingredients according to the recipe below and then they can become the ice cream machine. I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! YUM!!🍦🍨
Happy First Day of Summer! The season officially begins with the summer solstice, which takes place this year at precisely 9:41 p.m. today (June 20, 2025). Seasons are primarily caused by the Earth's tilt on its axis, and summer occurs when our part of the Earth is tilted toward the Sun resulting in more intense solar radiation (rays of heat from the Sun). The summer solstice marks the day with the longest daylight hours of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, where Arkansas is located. Enjoy every minute, Vann families! 🌎☀️
Vann kids are DEFINITELY cool kids! 😎

🗣️ Oral language 🗣️ is the process of learning how to communicate ideas through spoken words. Parents, teachers, and other adults can support oral language development by encouraging children to engage in purposeful conversations. Read the silly choices below to your child one at a time, and ask them to choose THIS or THAT. Then ask them to explain why they made their choice. There's sure to be some interesting and funny conversation that happens, and you'll get to see your child's amazing imagination on display!
Way Back Wednesday...featuring our spring talent showcase! From playing, singing, and dancing, to cheering and jumping, our students amazed their classmates and teachers with their outstanding abilities. Vann's Got Talent! Bravo!!!
