SUMMER READING PROGRAM

Optional Summer Check and Chat Sessions for Returning Students

Mrs. McFadyen and all of our Reading Teachers encourage all our returning students to continue their reading during the summer.  One fun way to have your children read is to participate in the Summer Reading Program and 'Check and Chat' Sessions.
 
If your child is checking out a book for the summer, we will be offering three dates that you may sign up to have your child come in for a few minutes, if you have a need. At that time, your child may:

• Read with Mrs. McFadyen/ Mrs. Shioshita to briefly check comprehension and vocabulary.

•  Return a book, exchange a book or make adjustments.

If your child has finished the book and would like another, it will be important to bring the book and completed workbook with them.

Students in preprimers, who have finished a book, should be prepared to read all vocabulary words at the back of the book.

We hope this will provide an opportunity for parents and children to connect with school during the summer and to meet the needs of students around their summer reading. Please call the office (480.963.2313) and leave a message prior to the day to let us know you would like to stop by.  Scheduled dates and times are:  Thursday, June 16th; Tuesday, July 12th and Thursday, August 4th; from 9 am – 12 noon.

Happy Reading!!!
