Update from Ms. R

The homework for this week is to write a story (fiction or non-fiction) about the squirrel sticker in the homework writing journal. Please make sure your child reads the editing promise taped on the front cover. There is also a math worksheet reviewing the numeration patterning work we covered this week. This homework is due on Friday, September 25th.

Borrow-A-Book Program

In Room 204 our Borrow-A-Book program allows the students to borrow books from our classroom library to take home to read. The students are allowed to borrow one book a day and can exchange a book each day if they wish (less often if he/she has chosen a chapter book). The students do not need to take a book each day if they are reading their own books or library books at home. The children have been given plastic zip bags to put the books in to keep the books clean. It is expected that each child read at home for a minimum of 20 minutes a day. This reading time is considered to be daily homework. When we finally get our agendas, the students will be required to write down the name of the book and the number of pages read each day in the agenda.
