Book Club starting this week

We have started our novel study! The book “Tale of a 4th Grade Nothing” was sent home in a baggie today. Students have until October 6th to read the book and return it to school. This is a great way for students to accomplish their 20 minutes of daily required reading. Make sure your student is READING every night!!

These books are to be treated as Quest property and will need to be replaced if they are damaged or lost.

Students are to read for 20 mins a night. This book is a 4th grade leveled reader. Some students in our class are not reading on this level but would like to participate in the novel study. We discuss the book in the mornings like a book club would. I encourage the students to read the book out loud to a grown up or older sibling. If you find that your child is struggling to read this text, and you can’t read it along side them. Please let me know.
