Favorite Book
Everyone is required to bring a copy of a favorite book by week's end(Fri, 9/10) to complete a reading project. As part of our skill-building for book clubs, students will be asked to write a brief synopsis of the book (summarizer role) and a detailed color illustration from this work (artist role). Student products will be displayed on the wall outside the classroom.

5th Grade Guidelines/School Paperwork
Please make sure that you get all your paperwork in ASAP.

Book Club Facilitators Needed
Parents, grandparents and any other caring, responsible adults who are a part of one our young learners lives are invited to volunteer to facilitate student book clubs. In addition to reading the texts, BCF's will spend a half hour each week meeting with 5 or 6 young readers. Kids run the clubs; adults make sure everyone is safe and involved in the club's functions. Please send me an e-mail if you're interested. Time commitments can vary from all year to two months. Meeting time will be forged by consensus of volunteers. Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday between 10:45 (after math and 11:55 (before lunch) will probably work best. Clubs will begin in early to mid-October.
