If you have lost your reading log, click on the link below to get a new one.  You can print it out at home.  Each student in the school was given a reading log on Monday.  We are working on teaching the children to be responsible with their homework and materials, so if they need a new reading log they need to either print out a new one or hand copy it onto a piece of paper.  I will accept both ways 🙂 Oakman reading log 2019
