Nightly Reading

The students should be bringing home a book sack along with a reading log and several books of their choice. My expectation is that the children read each evening. I don't have a set time or even a particular book that they have to read but I want them to practice reading. We are working hard at choosing 'just right' books and also books from different genres. Please encourage your child to read each evening and record the books on their log. Reading takes you places.

First Day of School!

I am so excited that our first day went so well. I had to talk most of the morning about procedures, rules, and reminders. The class handled it well. We will review all of those things throughout the year.



I was able to share some information about me and I am anxious to learn more about my students. We started a class book today about their interests. I will post pictures as they finish.



We will be very busy learning and having fun this year. I hope you continue to visit our blog!
