Home Reading Programme

Dear Families,

Welcome to the new school year! 

Learning to read will be an important goal for your child this year. We will be working on this goal every day in our classroom, and you also have an essential part to play at home!

This year you and your child will participate in the Home Reading Programme.

On Monday, Wednesday and Friday your child will bring a book home. Please spend ten minutes on the Home Reading Programme with your child each evening.

Here is how the programme works – I will send a book, several cards with questions, a notebook for answering questions and drawing, and a log sheet home with your child in his/her home reading folder.

The Home Reading routine is simple:

•        Enjoy the book together.
•        Then spend a few minutes answering the questions, encourage your child to illustrate his/her answers with colorful drawings.
•        Let your child know that you enjoy the time together
•        Make listening to reading a special time
•        Sign the log sheet for that book

Please have your child bring his/her reading folder to school on Monday, Wednesday & Friday.

As always, please contact me if you questions or want to share information about your child. Together we will help children become strong and successful readers!

Sincerely,

Ms. Tatiana
