Important Information

1. We have had some questions about our home reading program and we would like to clarify how it works.  Home reading is changed every Monday (or Tuesday if there is no school on Monday).  Students are responsible for everything.  They bring in their books and change them themselves.  Every Monday, we ask all students to bring the home reading bags into the classroom. We do not check backpacks.  Also, we recommend to students that they try and choose different books every time, but ultimately it is their choice.  The levelled books are colour coded and each student knows the colour they choose from.  If you are finding that the books are either too easy or too hard, please send us an email or a note in the communication folder.

Have a super weekend!
