READING

Dear Parents,

Throughout the year, the students in my class will be reading books from a variety of collections.  To help the children get the most out of their books, our reading program, Le voyage de lecture, features an independent reading log. It is important to read to someone at home. Each book should be read at least once independently. When this task is complete, your child is to read a part from the same book to an adult for 10 minutes. Lastly, your child is to read a different part from the same book to an adult or a friend for 10 minutes. Once these three tasks are completed, your child will fill out a reading comprehension sheet. When all four steps are completed, you will be asked to write the name of the book, the date the reading assignment was completed as well as any comments you have about your child’s reading or comprehension. I hope that you will enjoy helping your child fulfill this important part of the assignment.

*** French books only!!!

Le voyage de lecture

The goal of this program is to travel from one continent to another in order to reach Oceania. To travel from one continent to the next, 10 books must be read.

The goal of our independent reading program is to foster a love of reading and to help children build important reading skills. I look forward to helping each student reach his/her potential. Please feel free to write me a note if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Mme Audy

Homework plays am important role in reinforcing the course material covered in class.

I understand that students and their families lead very busy lives. Students are expected to do homework each night. However, should you have something important going on in your family life, please let me know and I can accommodate you.

 

Here are some of the components you can expect.                              

Reading Program: In French, most of the reading will be done in class, but please encourage your child to read in French as it is a good way to learn a second language. I do expect the children to read at least 10 minutes in French each day.  In my opinion, this is the most important homework assignment that I give.  The only way to become a better reader is to practice reading.  It also helps with vocabulary development of a second language.

NO HOMEWORK!!!!!
