Dear Parent(s),

I am thrilled to be able to inform you of a new addition to our 
reading series at PKS!  We are now using Pearson Success Net to reinforce 
daily reading instruction and provide enrichment to our students.  Pearson 
Success Net is the web-based program that goes along with our Scott Foresman 
reading series.  It allows parents to access weekly reading selections from 
home via the Internet.  On Monday of each week I will send four readers to 
your child’s account.  They will include the weekly kindergarten student 
reader, listen to me reader, independent leveled reader, and decodable 
reader.  Your child’s teacher will be using these same books during small 
group reading instruction that week.  If you have Internet access at home, I 
encourage you to practice these stories with your child.  In addition to the 
stories, there is also an icon on your child’s homepage called “take it to 
the net.”  This portion of the program has story retelling exercises that go 
along with some of the weekly selections.  From time to time, your child’s 
teacher may also send additional readers to your child’s account to help with 
specific skills they are working on in the classroom.  The stories will stay 
on your child’s homepage for two weeks.  Then they will automatically fall 
off as new readers are added.  Feel free to go back and reread stories from 
the prior week.  Since these stories will be familiar to your child, he/she 
can practice reading fluently.

Your child’s teacher will be sending you his/her username and 
password very soon.    You can access the program by going to 
www.pearsonsuccessnet.com.  Follow the log-in instructions and you should see 
your child’s homepage!

Although this program serves as an excellent supplemental activity for our 
students, it is not required.  It is designed to reinforce the teaching that 
occurs daily in your child’s classroom.  If you do not have Internet access 
at home, please do not stress!

I hope you all enjoy using Pearson Success Net.  I think it will be a 
wonderful addition to our reading program.  If you have questions, please 
feel free to contact me at 361-3890 ext. 16010.

Sincerely,

Deanise Peacock
