Summer Reading

A fun way to encourage your children to keep reading this summer is to have them complete a READO/YoLEO card. Students received a READO/YoLEO card the last day of school. Students who complete the this and return it to Ms. Amy by August 16th will receive a coin for our new book vending machine!

Here is a copy of the READO/YoLEO card you can download in case your students misplaced their card. 

• READO/YoLEO Challenge

Una forma divertida de animar a sus hijos a seguir leyendo este verano es pedirles que completen una tarjeta READO/YoLEO. Los estudiantes recibieron una tarjeta READO/YoLEO el último día de clases. ¡Los estudiantes que completen esto y se lo devuelvan a la Sra. Amy antes del 16 de agosto recibirán una moneda para nuestra nueva máquina expendedora de libros!

Aquí hay una copia de la tarjeta READO/YoLEO que puede descargar en caso de que sus estudiantes pierdan su tarjeta.
