Reading

Yesterday, I sent home a letter regarding "Paws for Reading."  Your child must choose to side with dogs or cats.  I want each child to read at least 20 minutes a night and then log it into the log sheet I provided (date, how long they read, and any books they completed).  Please sign or initial each day your child does read.  At any time, go online with your child (www.scholastic.com/paws) to login the minutes read, learn more, and check for prize incentives and fun downloadables.  To get started on the website, click on GET STARTED under the Kids section (each student has a personalized user name and password, which I will provide to them on Wednesday).  The competition ends on December 14th.  Who will win, Dogs or Cats?

This is the standings as of right now...

Scholastic order forms were sent home today.

This month's Scholastic Book Club flyers are ready for you to explore with your child. Children read more when they choose their own books, so I encourage you to look at the flyers together.

You can return the order form and payment to me, or give online ordering a try. It saves time, offers more book choices, and earns extra rewards for the classroom!
