Authors, Illustrators and Bookmakers!....and Readers!


The newest book created by your child will be coming home soon. 
The students are very proud of their new Number Rumba Book!  
Our Kindergarten students are bookmakers, authors, illustrators
and readers! 

You may be wondering what to do with all the books your 
son/daughter have brought home this year.  Here are some 
suggestions.


First - Keep them handy.  K students worked hard at producing
these projects and they are quite proud of themselves.  Encourage
them to read and re-read their books.  The rereading will help 
them build fluency!


Second - Encourage them to hunt for specific words in the books,
to read them to others and to add details to them!


Finally - Find a special place to keep them.  You and your child
will enjoy them for many years.  Mrs. Parnell’s eldest is a 
freshman in high school, but the books made in Kindergarten
are special keepsakes.  We look through both my daughters
rubbermaid totes about once a year. My girls enjoy looking back
at these books and they plan on keeping them forever!  
A large rubber tote container works great to help store everything!

With 3 months left in our school year there are many more

publications to come!
