Unlocking the Mystery of Reading
However, finding a book to read and connecting to a love of reading at an early age is so important. As students continue in their learning, it is so important that they are reading for enjoyment and selecting books of their own interests.
If your child is struggling to find enjoyment in reading or hasn't found their favorite book, I want to encourage you to reach out to your child's teacher or our Librarian, Kelly Hartman. We want to help you foster a love of reading in your child.
Stay tuned for information next week on another opportunity to read together with your child.
