YAY! It's North Landing Reading Month!
Our theme this year piggybacks off of our schoolwide kindness initiative. It is "Great Reads- Pay Them Forward."
Your child will be bringing home a special Reading Month packet (it's on yellow paper) today. Please take a few moments to review the calendar and special events with your child.
Every school day during Reading Month, we will…
· have special guests with their book recommendations live on video. These special guests will be recommending their favorite reads to the students of North Landing. A special card will be posted by each recommended book in the library so that students may easily find them!
· be working hard to meet the NLES AR Challenge Goal! The goal is for every student in the building to take and pass (with an 85% or higher) an AR test! If 100% of our students make the goal, everyone gets a HW pass!
· be hosting MIB (Men in Books) volunteers in the building. Super cool dudes from the community are volunteering to come in and read with our students. If you are a super cool dude and you are interested, we can still add you to the mix! Contact Mrs. Horsley— anne.horsley@vbschools.com.
· be sending daily literacy tips home to families through text messages and email. If you are interested and have not signed up, please send Mrs. Horsley an email—— anne.horsley@vbschools.com.
The FEATURED event this week is to have students complete the "Reading Kindness Chain Link" at home and return to school. Please encourage your child to recommend a favorite book to others on this slip. They will hang in the hall for everyone to see and read. We want to see how long our chain can get!
