It
was great to see all of my students after a restful summer vacation. I was
excited to recognize 137 students for their extra hard work and dedication to
read over the summer with our Summer Reading Program.
This school year, I will be
focusing on Guided Reading in grades 1-5. Classroom teachers and I will be
working with the students in small groups to teach the skills necessary to
become fluent readers as well as improving the students’ comprehension skills.
Kindergarten will be learning to
recall the details of the beginning, middle and end (BME) of a story through a
combination of drawing and the written word.
Please
feel free to contact me with any comments or questions you may have. Should
your child have any difficulty, I will be happy to give you some suggestions as
to how you can help at home.
When parents and teachers work
together, the children are the winners.
