ATTENTION PARENTS

We sincerely hope that all of our students and families are well during this very unsettling time.

Please take a moment and complete the survey sent out by the district using the link below if you have not already done so. You will need your child's student number. The student number is the same as your child's username that is used to log into iReady. However, do not include the lower case "s" that precedes the student number.

SURVEY LINK

Please feel free to leave a comment to this post or email us with any questions or concerns. At this time, email is the most effective form of communication.

We expect to have details sent out to all of our families in the very near future regarding how students will engage in home learning starting next week.

Once again, please reach out to us if you have any questions. Bloomz, the text messaging service we have been using, has been troublesome for some. Thus, again, the best method of communication with us is via email and please remember to include both teachers in your email.

SERIES READING AND READERS TO LEADERS

Practice makes perfect! We need our students to choose to practice reading as much as they can during the day and at home. Thus, we are beginning our adventures with reading books in series. Series books are an easy way to get students into the habit of reading one book after another and support a lifelong love of reading. 

Our students have received their new Series Book Log. This book log will be kept inside the blue Home-School planner. Each student is responsible for completing the log as each book in a series is read in its entirety. These books should be read alone by the student and may be count towards nightly reading homework. If that is the case, please make sure that your child completes and returns the weekly homework log separately. As each goal is reached, the students will be awarded a new badge to add to their new Readers to Leaders chain.

WHAT IS THE FIRST GOAL?

Getting Started Tag:  Finished your first book in a series and are starting your second in a series.
