Friday is a half day. Dismissal is at 11:15.

What's new
We will no longer be having guest reader time on Fridays because students are going to be the readers. I choose two or three students to read aloud to the class every Friday afternoon. You will be notified on Monday of the week with a paper explaining everything if your child's was chosen that week.

Also, we are doing reader's theater in the classroom. Students will receive scripts on Monday of each week that they can either keep in school to practice or bring back and forth from school and home. We will perform every Friday and the performances will be put on my youtube channel and then the links to those videos will be on the blog. Please practice with your child. Reader's theater is supposed to help students read more fluently (read like they talk).
