From the Wildcat Weekly - February 1, 2024

World Read Aloud Day is Wednesday, February 7th! Celebrate at home by doing some extra reading and talking to your child about how people ALL OVER THE WORLD are reading together!

In the Media Center this week, we learned about Lunar New Year. Some of our students were able to share about their family customs. Students decorated dragon scales and we are extending the dragon we started last year to wrap around the entire library!!

If you are interested in better managing screen time in your home, Common Sense Media has some great suggestions here.

Library Book Check-Out

 

Library Book Check-Out

We will start book check-out next week. Kindergarten students leave their books in the classroom. First and second graders have the option of bringing books home. I spoke to first and second graders this week about their responsibility for returning their books so that they can get new ones. Please speak to your child about a good place to keep books in your house so that they don't get lost. You can visit the FAQ page of our website for some suggestions on keeping track of library books, as well as the library schedule and check out policies. Please review these with your student and especially if they attend an afterschool program.
