Welcome to Our Literacy Round-Up!
Dress-Up Days and Bedtime Authors!
Mustang Monday Message
Mustang Family,
I hope you all had a wonderful long weekend!
Each year, the school and PTA each hold one fundraiser. We are excited that it is time for our annual Literacy Round-Up. We hope to promote literacy to collect money for our Leveled Library (specialty books teachers use during guided reading) and purchase technology for our classrooms. We are excited about the many activities we have planned to celebrate literacy! We will have dress-up days throughout the week and bedtime stories over Zoom. During the bedtime stories, students will have the opportunity to listen to real authors share their stories over Zoom at 7 pm. For more information about these events, see the post and attachments below.
Reading Matters! This week we are excited to make fun memories with our students reading.
Thank you all for your incredible support. Best,
Principal Balli
Familia Mustang,
¡Espero que todos hayan tenido un maravilloso fin de semana largo!
Cada año, la escuela y la PTA realizan cada uno una recaudación de fondos. Estamos emocionados de que sea el momento de nuestra reunión anual de alfabetización. Esperamos promover la alfabetización para recolectar dinero para nuestra biblioteca nivelada (libros especializados que usan los maestros durante la lectura guiada) y comprar tecnología para nuestras aulas. ¡Estamos entusiasmados con las muchas actividades que hemos planeado para celebrar la alfabetización! Tendremos días de disfraces durante toda la semana y cuentos antes de dormir por Zoom. Durante los cuentos para dormir, los estudiantes tendrán la oportunidad de escuchar a autores reales compartir sus historias por Zoom a las 7 p. m. Para obtener más información sobre estos eventos, consulte la publicación y los archivos adjuntos a continuación.
Leer importa! Esta semana estamos emocionados de hacer recuerdos divertidos con la lectura de nuestros estudiantes.
Gracias a todos por su increíble apoyo. Mejor,
Director Balli
Literacy Round-Up Fundraiser Information
Each year, the school and PTA each hold one fundraiser. We are excited that it is time for our annual Literacy Round-Up, in which we hope to promote literacy to collect money for our Leveled Library (these are specialty books teachers use during guided reading) and to purchase technology for our classrooms.
The first step is to get pledges; the paper on the envelope explains this process. Students will have the opportunity to collect pledges on Feb. 25-27th. We want to keep our students safe by only having them go to family members or people that they trust for pledges. We do not want children going door to door collecting money. The Reading Roundup will take place Feb. 28-Mar. 4. During this time students will track the amount of minutes they read each day on the calendar provided. The minutes will be calculated to determine the amount of money people will donate.
We will be holding an online gift basket auction starting on Wednesday and ending next Tuesday (a link will be sent through email and on social media!). Get excited, we have some fun book themed baskets!
Beginning March 7th , we will begin accepting donations. ALL DONATIONS can be paid by CASH, CHECK (placed in attached envelop), or online in the iCampus Portal under the section “Fees.”
Literacy Bedtime Stories
Due to COVID, we are unable to hold our annual Literacy Night at Meadow Brook. However, we are very excited to announce that we will be replacing this with nightly Bedtime Stories read by the authors themselves. Each night a picture book author and a chapter book author will share their stories through Zoom with anyone that would like to participate. The same Zoom link will be utilized for each session. https://nebo-edu.zoom.us/j/81385705970?pwd=TmR6bGhlQnYreWU2RDFqU0NZTHFzdz09
Resumen de lectura de Meadow Brook Información para la recaudación de fondos
Cada año, la escuela y la PTA realizan cada uno una recaudación de fondos. Estamos emocionados de que sea el momento de nuestra reunión anual de alfabetización, en la que esperamos promover la alfabetización para recaudar dinero para nuestra biblioteca nivelada (estos son libros especializados que usan los maestros durante la lectura guiada) y para comprar tecnología para nuestras aulas.
El primer paso es conseguir promesas; el papel en el sobre explica este proceso. Los estudiantes tendrán la oportunidad de recolectar donaciones del 25 al 27 de febrero. Queremos mantener seguros a nuestros estudiantes haciendo que solo acudan a miembros de la familia o personas en las que confíen para obtener promesas. No queremos que los niños vayan de puerta en puerta recogiendo dinero. El resumen de lectura se llevará a cabo del 28 de febrero al 2 de marzo. 4. Durante este tiempo, los estudiantes registrarán la cantidad de minutos que leen cada día en el calendario provisto. Los minutos se calcularán para determinar la cantidad de dinero que la gente donará.
Realizaremos una subasta de canastas de regalo en línea a partir del miércoles y finalizará el próximo martes (¡se enviará un enlace por correo electrónico y en las redes sociales!). ¡Anímate, tenemos algunas canastas divertidas con temas de libros!
A partir del 7 de marzo, comenzaremos a aceptar donaciones. TODAS LAS DONACIONES se pueden pagar en EFECTIVO, CHEQUE (colocado en el sobre adjunto) o en línea en el Portal iCampus en la sección "Tarifas".
Cuentos de alfabetización para dormir
Debido a COVID, no podemos realizar nuestra Noche de alfabetización anual en Meadow Brook. Sin embargo, estamos muy emocionados de anunciar que reemplazaremos esto con Cuentos nocturnos para dormir leídos por los propios autores. Cada noche, un autor de libros ilustrados y un autor de libros de capítulos compartirán sus historias a través de Zoom con cualquier persona que desee participar. Se utilizará el mismo enlace de Zoom para cada sesión.

Safety
- We are working hard to teach students to use the crosswalks. We are concerned about the number of students running across the pick-up lanes and parking lots. If you can help us teach your children about this that would be great!
