Reading
Welcome to Grade 2 Room 3. I hope you have been enjoying your Summer
Readings. We will have fun working with these books in school.
The children should continue reading independently for at least 10
minutes each night. They have library once a week. Encourage your child
to take out a book that will catch and hold their interest.
The Book-It Challenge will begin in October for Pizza Hut. This program
motivates children to read by rewarding them for their
reading accomplishments. Please do all in your power to encourage your child
to read. This is the foundation for all future knowledge. If they don't
enjoy reading, they will struggle with studies throughout their life.
Find their level of interest and pursue it with books, be it sports,
mystery, fairy tales...etc.
The 500 Ticket Book Challenge will begin in April. The children have
participated in this activity in previous years and when we reached our goal
they celebrated with a fun activity. More information will be sent home in
late March.
