Your child brought home his/her Reading Month Packet last week. Please refer to the calendar that was included in the packet for Daily Activities your child can do both at school and at home. Tuesdays are Mystery Reader days in school and every Thursday your child is encouraged to come to school with a fact in their pocket. 🙂 Also, EVERY FRIDAY reading minutes are due. Your child needs to record 150 reading minutes during the week and have you sign their slip in order for it to count. Late minutes will not be accepted unless your child is absent.

If you would like to be a guest reader in our class we would love to have you come and read a 10-15 minute story of your choice. I ask that you please do NOT bring treats, rewards, or snacks for the children when you come. Although I am always grateful for your generosity, I would like to keep this a reading only event. 🙂 Out best days for guest readers are Tuesdays and Fridays. Just send me an email (martinh@dearbornschools.org) if you’d like to read and let me know what date and time works best for you. Thank you!

Also, just a reminder, that your child will have a spelling test this Friday from last week’s words and the vocabulary they brought home yesterday will be part of the test.
