November 17, 2009


Grade One is a time to set a good foundation for life-long reading. Much of the day is given to reading activities. Hearing a story is still a great way to develop reading skills. During story time, children hear language used by some of the world's best writers, see illustrations by professional artists, and are challenged to think about literature or stretched in their knowledge of the world.

Your story times at home also build that foundation. Although it's important for your child to read, it's still important that you read to your child.

Wednesday and Thursday this week, students will be dismissed at 1:35 so teachers can meet with parents. The schedule is posted outside the classroom door, and your interview time is in the planner.
