Reading is our Superpower!!

Today everyone brought home their packet of information for reading month.  Please read through it carefully.  A few of the highlights:

• The items on the calendar are suggestions.  You do not have to do them all.  I do encourage you to participate in at least a few of the activities and especially on Thursdays with a “super fact in your pocket” day.  I am also really excited for superhero socks day and superhero t-shirt day.
• Students should start counting and recording their number of reading minutes on Friday of this week.  Every day they read, they should write the number of minutes down on “Week 1” of the recording sheet.  On March 9th, they should total all their minutes, get it signed by a parent, and then cut off “week 1” and bring it in on Friday, March 10th.  They will repeat this each week.  Students who read at 120 minutes (or more) each week get a sticker to put on the bulletin board outside our room.
• The last page in the packet is an invitation for parents or other family members to come and be SUPER readers in our classroom.  We LOVE to have guest readers!!!! Please make sure you give me a few choices of times that will work for you so I can find one that works in our daily schedule.

If you didn’t see the packet today, here is your weekly minutes page and SUPER reader invitation.  If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send me a note or email.
