This year we will be using a reading program called Making Meaning. This program is a research based curriculum that uses best teaching practices to improve a child's literacy skills. Part of the program is a individual daily reading time (IDR). Each day your child will be required to read in class on their own for up to 30 minutes. It is very important for your child to be at school every day so that he/she does not miss out on any instruction.
All students are participating in a 40 book challenge. They are keeping track of their progress in their Reading Logs in class as well as at home.
