After reviewing the reading logs from last week, it became apparent that many children needed more clarification. Some points to be mindful of:
*The summary in the back should answer all the bullet points listed. A good way to approach it is to write a paragraph for each point.
*Children can use post-its to jot down important events as they read throughout the week. This can be helpful when your child gets ready to write the summary by the end of the week. We've reviewed this strategy in class, and encouraged children to use it when they have trouble remembering all of the story.
*Please be mindful of reading pace. Children should be reading about 30-40 pages, with comprehension, in their just right book over the forty-five minute session. Any less might indicate that the book is not right for your child.
Please continue writing your initials in the log daily. Thank you!
