Rain Reign-Great 4th and 5th Grade Read Aloud!
Rose Howard is obsessed with homonyms. She’s thrilled that her own name is a homonym, and she purposely gave her dog Rain a name with two homonyms (Reign, Rein), which, according to Rose’s rules of homonyms, is very special. Not everyone understands Rose’s obsessions, her rules, and the other things that make her different – not her teachers, not other kids, and not her single father.
When a storm hits their rural town, rivers overflow, the roads are flooded, and Rain goes missing. Rose’s father shouldn’t have let Rain out. Now Rose has to find her dog, even if it means leaving her routines and safe places to search.
Hearts will break and spirits will soar for this powerful story, brilliantly told from Rose’s point of view.

OPEN LIBRARY 2014-2015
Tuesday
3:00-3:25 PM
Thursday
9:00-9:30
Open Library Expectations:
1. No more than three students from each classroom at a time. Students must wear open library necklaces to be admitted to library.
2. Students must finish both library books and take AR tests on both before getting new library books (One for 1st grade and Kindergarten.) I want open library time to be a useful time for readers who really need books and not just a time to get out of class and fool around in the library.
3. Please don’t send kids to checkout library books other than open library times. I often have classes or am helping someone outside of the library (If a student really needs to come down please set it up with me.)
Can you help?
4th and 5th Graders keep their books and return them during library.
If you have your name on the basket, I'll be sure to get it back to you if you leave it in the library.
