Reading

 

Please encourage your child to read both silently and out loud on a daily basis at home. Reading out loud is crucial to improving your child's fluency, expression and comprehension. 

 

When we visit the Library each week, students are enouraged to select two books, one on their reading level and one for enjoyment. It is our class goal that during our D.E.A.R. time each week, students will read and take an Accelerated Reader Quiz for a book they've finished. If a student finishes their books early, they are able to visit the Library on any given day to get another book. If a student is reading a longer book, they may need an extra week or so to complete the Accelerated Reader Quiz, but it will be worth more points.

 

Please keep in mind that your child is responsible for at least one AR quiz per month. Their quiz reusult will be added to our grade book. If your child reads multiple books in one month, I will take their highest score. Please see the Accelerated Reader tab for more information. 

 

 

Raz Kids

 

Students are also encouraged to read Raz Kids books, which automatically are assigned to students according to their level. We will read some stories in class, and it is a great resource to improve comprehension and fluency at home, as well. Most likely, your child has been using RazKids for a few years now and are familiar with the resource.
