it's almost Book Fair time!!!

Reading for pleasure inside and outside the school has real and long-lasting benefits. It unlocks the power of information and imagination and helps children discover who they are. Here’s what you can do to help children develop stronger reading skills and a love for reading:
·         Set the example. Let children see you read.
·         Have a collection of books in your home. Update this collection routinely to keep pace with changing tastes and reading skills.
·         Support our school’s Book Fair. Allow your children to choose their own books to read.

 
Our Scholastic Book Fair is a reading event that brings the books kids want to read right into our school. It’s a wonderful selection of engaging and affordable books for every reading level. Please make plans to visit our Book Fair and be involved in shaping your child’s reading habits.
