RAZ Kids Information!

Reluctant Readers?   Raz-Kids is Sure to  Help!   

The children are very excited and can't wait to start Raz-Kids at home!  I am happy to inform you that your child has access to hundreds of eBooks using the school's subscription to Raz-Kids.  Children can read and listen to books on Raz-Kids and even record themselves reading!  Afterwards they can take a quiz to check for comprehension.  On Wednesday, October 29th, the students will be given information about accessing Raz-Kids at home.

Halloween News!

Our Halloween Party is scheduled to take place on Friday, October 31st from 11:15-12:00.  Students are asked to bring their Halloween costumes to school in a bag clearly labeled with his/her name.  Please have your child leave small items at home, so items will not get lost before trick or treat.   Our rooms parents may contact you to provide food/beverages, or to volunteer to help out at our classroom party. The children are getting excited for Halloween!
