Reading makes your world BIG!
Week 2: April 6 - 10, 2020
Hi, Falcons! This week is all about snakes! Enjoy the read aloud and then spend a few minutes on a link or two. Please know, nothing in this newsletter is mandatory. I'm creating them for you in case you want something fun to do. Remember, the best thing you can do each day is read for 30 minutes this includes magazines, joke books, books of poetry, cookbooks, crafting books, etc. eBooks and audio books, too. Read whatever you want to read!!
Also, be sure to look in your VPortal. You now have free access to thousands of books via the JLG Digital Elementary, Tumble Book Library (K-5) , and Epic! tiles. Plus, the Volusia County Public library is granting library cards over the phone!! Once you have your public library card you will be able to access tens of of thousands of eBooks, SSYRA books, audio books, and countless other resources.
Please email me (included at the bottom of newsletter) if you have any questions!
Happy reading!
