I am very excited to announce the activities for Haigh’s March Is Reading Month!

There are MANY fun opportunities for your child to get excited about reading!  In this post, you will find all of the resources for the month of March.

A couple of reminders:

  • Please make sure to turn in the permission slip for the Read-A-Thon by Friday March 8 with a $5 donation.
  • Please make sure your child brings his/her reading log to class EVERY MONDAY for a progress check with me!
  • Please make sure to visit the local library.
    • Every Monday, I will be asking students to bring in a book they found at the public library!  This is in addition to the school activities.  I want the students to be familiar with this community resource and USE IT!
  • Third graders are expected to read 30 minutes each day.
  • Remember Spirit Week!  Donations for participation are encouraged (50 cents per day)
  • Reading Logs are due for the month by April 10!

We will be celebrating Valentine’s Day on WEDNESDAY February 13 in our classroom.  A note was sent home last week with the details.  Please remember to have your student bring in a LARGE paper grocery bag for a craft we will be making together.  If your child is planning to share valentines, we have 26 students in our class.  Our celebration will be from 2:30-3:30.  We will be passing out valentines and enjoying a snack together.
