Welcome to 2nd Grade! I am so happy to have you in my class this year.
We have library check outs weekly, but students will not be allowed to get new books until they have taken an AR test on any current checked out books. Your child is allowed to have 2 checked out books at a time. If they are not returned, they will not be allowed to check out new books at their next check-out oppurtunity.
Please make sure that your child has their book at school throughout the week so that they are able to check out a new book once the time comes.
You can check their progress for AR at home through their Accelerated Reader account. They should never have below 90% average of accuracy on AR tests. If they are below 90%, they are at risk of not meeting their AR goal for the nine weeks. Please make sure your child is taking at least 2 tests a week at school and reading their book regularly at home.

Resources for Reading:
Please use this class code kqk4449 at https://www.getepic.com/students and start using Epic, our digital library. This is a fun place for students read extra books or even watch educational videos. You will find that most of these books are AR books.
I highly encourage letting your child check out AR books from the public library. Please make sure they are getting books that are appropriate for their Reading Level. If you are unsure of their reading level, please contact me through email or Remind and I will let you know.
You can get on ARbookfind.com to check book point values, reading levels, etc. This website will allow you to find out if the book is an AR book. **Not all books are in the AR system.
