READING HOMEWORK
Please keep filling out the monthly Reading Logs. Here are some ways to fit 20 minutes of reading in each day and to make it fun for your kids!
- Keep books in the car so reading can be done in the car.
- Keep books in your purse/backpack so you can read on the go at appts.
- Read magazines/comics.
- Read recipes as parents cook.
- Booster can count as 20 minutes as reading, they are reading for at least 20 min. there.
- Listening to books on CD in the car, these can be found at the Public Library and in Scholastic book orders.
- Read to younger brothers or sisters.
- Read on EPIC.
- Listen to a book on www.storylineonline.net or on YouTube there are many read-alouds on there (please preview first).
- Weekly reading homework packets.
- Reread guided reading books that are sent home.
- Start a chapter book at home that you and your child can read together.
Student of the Week
Important Information
- It is officially COLD out, please make sure your child has appropriate weather for the severe cold weather that we are having. When we do get to go outside we need to make sure they are prepared for the weather.
- Please send headphones to school with your child. They will be using these weekly for class, media, science, testing, etc. They don't have to be fancy, you can find them at the dollar store and they work great!
- If you have not given $6 for party money please do that when you can. We will be using this throughout the year to help pay for our various holiday parties we have throughout the year.
- If your child has a change in after school plans it is important that you call transportation. Thank you for being patient with our new system, it is not perfect but we are working on it. I request that you also send a note with your child as well just so I know that there is a change in their transportation just in case I have a sub and also a reminder to myself and the student. Thank you!
