Help Me Find a Book!

Walking into a library or a bookstore can be a daunting task when asked to find a book that your child will actually sit down and read. Knowing your child's Lexile score can help. That score is on their ISAT test results but those scores haven't come out yet for this year. One site that might help you is http://fab.lexile.com. On this site you can enter the grade your child is in and how they feel about the reading they have in that grade. You are then asked about your child's interests. Almost magically, books appear that will be approximately on your child's reading level and on topics your child is interested in. Print off the list and take it with you to the library or bookstore. It takes some of the guesswork out of it.

Welcome Back!

After having a wonderful summer, I am excited to be back in the classroom. It is fun planning for a new school year. I am looking forward to seeing all of the smiling faces walking in on Monday morning. If you have any questions about your child's reading, please feel free to contact me. Here is to a great year!
