3rd Quarter is here! I anticipate a great quarter with lots of student growth and development.
I am excited about our 3rd Quarter Reading Challenge--we have had to submissions already. Each morning we will randomly choose one to read, eventually we will have students read their own but to start we will read it. Students that submit reading challenge sheets will receive a small token and the class with the most submissions at the end of the quarter will get to submit their requests for their celebration and one of the requests will be honored. Let's push reading..every child, every day should have an experience with a book--being read to and reading on their own, when applicable. Students only get better at reading by reading and developing a love for books.
