How often does Franklin go home with students?

Franklin goes home with a selected student each Friday to spend the weekend 
with him/her.  On Sunday night, the parent and child write in Franklin's 
journal about the adventures they had together. Three pictures can be taken 
on the disposible camera in Franklin's bag.  All items must be returned on 
Monday morning: Franklin, his journal, his book, his camera, and his bag.  
The student will share with the class about the weekend he/she spent with 
Franklin.

How often do I need to read to my child?

To help your child grow and develop as a reader, it is best to read to your 
child daily. After you read a book at home, you can record the book on the 
Book Log included in your child's homework folder.
