Class News:
Love of Reading Week is quickly approaching. It is the week of February 6-10th. I would like to give each family the opportunity to come and read to the class. I have done this in year's past and it works very well, and the kids love it. My plan is to have parents, grandparents, or someone special in the students' lives come and read to the class for about 15 minutes. Many parents have chosen to read the book that they read to their child when they were younger, maybe their favorite childhood book. However if possible, please do not tell your child you will be in to read. It is a fun surprise for them. I have created a signup.com with 15 minutes time slots if you are interested. Please consider, I would love to have every child represented.
Please sign-Up
