PARENT PARTNERSHIP
Good readers think through their reading. One way to do this is by making text connections. You can connect what you are reading now to another book you've read before, something that has happened to you before, or something else in the world.
As you read with your child at home, please have them make these connections. Thank you for your support at home!
