I love to Read...

Parents,

Your child came home with a sheet in their yellow folder that was titled, "I love to Read". The directions on the sheet were to color in a space, in numerical order, after your child reads a book. During the quick paced Open House I forgot to mention this sheet. If your child is reading a chapter book they can count a chapter as a square/book. If you read a book to your child it counts as well. The idea behind the "I love to Read" sheet is to develop a love of reading and listening to reading. The students are motivated to read and color in squares because at the end, when everyone has turned in their sheets and read 100 books each, we will have a party to celebrate our accomplishments.
Keep encouraging your child to read aloud to you but also take the time to read to them!

Thanks,
Mrs. Caballero

P.S. Take home readers will start next week! They count too!
