First of all, thank you for all your support in helping your child to keep up with their reading this week and in being involved with the Home Reading program.

As we went through the week, one thing popped up that I just wanted to make a note of. In the evenings, after your child has read, please make sure that they are putting the amount of time read that evening on the calendar page associated with the month we are on. Also, please make sure you are signing it so that I know that you are aware of the time spent reading as well as to make sure students are not just writing times down and not actually doing the reading. The time and signature should be on the calendar page; not where the homework is written.

Over the weekend, students need to take a book they have read over the week or weekend and write a personal response to it on the reading response pages in their reading logs. There are suggestions for topics on the Reading Response page in the reading log. Students only need to fill in one box with their response. This will be due on Monday.

Please know that if this is unfamiliar to you or you have not seen any of this coming home, all information and pages are available in the menu at the top of the blog under the title banner.
