Book Bags

On Wednesday before Thanksgiving, I sent home book bags with your child.  You may have your child read them to you as many times as they would like and then bring them back to school. I will resend new books home when those come back. 


When your child is reading to you, ask them questions about the story.  You want your child to connect to the story and activate any prior knowledge they have regarding the text they are reading. Remind them to use the reading strategies they have been learning in class to help identify and decode unknown words.  Hope you have a great weekend and continue reading!
