Today was our first trip to the school library! We will travel to the library EVERY Wednesday and their library books and bag MUST be returned the next Wednesday morning.
Students are allowed to take 5 books out a week. For now, the 5 books will be split up in this way:
3 books based on word families, letter sounds, etc
2 books of their choice based on interest
In the weeks to come I will send home our "Home Reading" program that involves reading the library books, and of course, any other books you and your child read. This Home Reading component helps students take accountability of their learning and is outcome in the curriculum that we work on in Grade One. Thanks in advance for your cooperation with this program, and stay tuned for a post about what Home Reading will involve each week.
