Optional Review 10/28-10/31

**Please let me stress that this is optional practice for your student, not required.  We do ask for students to read 20+ minutes every day to develop their love for reading.  

Although we have optional review, we very seriously encourage you reading with your children, reading to your children, and reading as a family.  We have learned that the public library has a wonderful app to access amazing books online called Libby. You can access the app information at this link:  Libby Link   By using your public library account, your students can log in and choose from thousands of books online for free to read to you, you to read to them, your family to read together, etc.  Audio books followed along also are a great source to develop this love for reading with your child as they follow along in the book.
