Reading Plans: Your child will be bringing home his/her summer reading plan and a calendar to keep track of their reading over the summer. This is a school wide initiative to keep children reading over the summer so they do not slide backwards and lose valuable ground they have worked so hard to achieve over the past school year. Please help your child record the amount of reading they have done. Children will be given stickers to help cover Darth Vader for books they have read (ask your child about this) and can stop into school anytime with their calendar to place stickers on Darth Vader! At the beginning of the school year, your child should return their plan and they will be placed in a drawing to win prizes. We are excited and hopeful this program will help to prevent summer slippage!
