Hello All!
I hope that all family members or friends of yours are safe if they live in areas that experienced hurricanes. I also hope everyone is enjoying the start of some Fall weather and spending time outside!
Mystery Readers - your time has come!
I finally set up a sign-up genius for you. I set one day each month for the reader to come, but if you need some flexibility with this we can work out a date/time that works for you as well. I just tried to space them out so it wasn't back to back readers. Plan on reading a book that will take roughly 10-15 minutes, and don't forget to think about things you may want to have the kiddos think about, discuss, or share!
The kids LOVE being read to, especially when you are enthusiastic and read with a lot of energy and expression! Friendly reminder: Practice reading your book at least once if you're not familiar with it!
To sign up to be a mystery reader, go to this link. It will automatically send you a reminder 2 days before in case you forget!
Reading Homework
Please remember that students should be reading every night! I have been conferencing with many students and notice that many of them are not logging that they read each night, and/or do not complete the homework. Even if it is just writing a sticky note, they are expected to do the assigned work. Keep in mind that each night they read they can (and are encouraged to!) write sticky notes about any of their thinking - it does not have to be only the nights I send home directions!
Dates:
Sept. 14th - Believe Kids fundraiser opened! Please return any sales/packets to school.
Sept. 20th - Mrs. Baxter's math class Place Value Test
Sept. 22nd - I will submit our online Scholastic Book order on this day! Enter your order online ASAP if you're planning to buy books!
Sept. 27th - My math class Place Value Test
Sept. 20th - Fall Festival 4:00-7:00pm
Smiles,
Mrs. Malley :)
