Guided Reading

This week in Guided Reading your child spent time identifying the main idea and details within various stories. Please make sure to sign your child's yellow guided reading sheet each night once math and reading has been completed so your child doesn't lose 5 minutes of recess time.

Battle of the Books

This week your child was introduced to what the Battle of the Books is. Students are not required to participate in this competition but I would love to see many of my students participate. If your child is going to participate in the Battle of the Books be sure to send back to school the signed permission slip along with who his/her partner will be. Happy Reading!!

Winter is Near

The chilliness has arrived in the air. Please make sure your child is coming to school with a warm coat, a hat, and gloves.
