Ohlone Family Connection

Readers and Writers!
I hope you are able to create opportunities for your children to read and write at home. Bedtime stories will never go out of style :). Having just right books is important as students engage in independent reading at home. Reach out to your child's teacher if you have questions about their reading level or need books for home. Have a journal handy for creative writing. Here is an article with 5 Tips for Building a More Diverse Home Library.
I am looking forward to a great week ahead with your children. 100th day of school is on Thursday!
