Reading Homework

Today your child will begin their nightly reading homework.  Everyone should be reading at least 20 minutes every night.  They may read independently, with someone, or listen to an audio book.  Students may choose any type of book - fiction, non-fiction, chapter book, picture book etc. as long as they are reading and what they have chosen helps to develop a love for reading.  In your child's folder they received a sheet with different response activities.  Throughout the week they should work on completing 2 of these choices.  The finished work is due on Friday.  Although they only have 2 responses to complete it is crucial that your child is reading EVERY night. Through reading they develop a wider vocabulary, can read good detailed sentences, and are able to help their own writing.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
