DHS FOOD FROM ZAMAN
Parents,
We’ve got some great news to share! Zaman International will be at Dearborn High on Wednesday from 10-12:00 pm to deliver 250 boxes of food to families that may need them; the boxes feed a family of four for 1-2 weeks.
Feel free to use the south side of the building where normal breakfast and lunch pickup occurs.
Thanks Najah Bazzy and Zaman International for their generosity!
Thanks
Mr. Martin

Reading Strategies
| Prepare the Brain for Reading by Previewing First |
| Preview the book before reading: When we preview information (or in this case, the book), we are prepping the brain for the bigger picture of what is going to be read. Teach your children the following steps for preparing their brains to read any book (this is a life-long skill that many adults do naturally): Book Walk: Flip through the pages of the book to look at the pictures, chapters titles, captions, summaries, subheadings, etc. These “walks” through a text prime the brain and promote the big picture in a reader’s mind. Personal Connections: Ask questions like, “What do you already know about this topic, author, or ideas within the book? What do you think the book/chapter will be about? What do you think you might learn about this topic?” Vocabulary: Define a few, challenging vocabulary words that you notice during the Book Walk. Learning critical words before reading (or even during reading) drastically improves comprehension. Quick tools for definitions: dictionary.com; vocabulary.com; ninjawords.com.

Anyone can walk into the store and take anything that they may need from the meat section that’s marked with a plain white sticker. They can then take the items to the register and have them bagged. The address is 20125 Ann Arbor Trail, Dearborn Heights.
