For the Love of Reading!
Through the years as a principal and
teacher, I have tried many different
methods to encourage children to not
only read, but develop a love for reading.
I love to read and believe it is one of the
best ways to improve understanding and
build vocabulary in all areas. Reading
has been a lifelong companion for me
and I hope by sharing some strategies
you can use at home, our children will
discover how much reading can enrich
their lives!
Be a role model and set up a time to
read daily. It could be right before
bedtime.
Start a Series! Kids love them and
you will enjoy reading with them.
Pick a theme! Food, Reptiles,
Animals, Holidays, Fantasies, Fairy
Tales, Science, Sports. Children love
to learn about your interests and be a
part of your hobbies.
Poetry! Children’s poetry is so much
fun. Read Shel Silverstein, Kevin
Kellog, Bobbi Katz, Wade Hudson,
Naomi Shihab Nye, Myra Livingston.
Throw in some adult poetry by
Robert Frost.
Check out the Award Winning Books
for Children’s Literature, (Caldecott,
Newberry, Young Hoosier Awards)
Visit this website for books read to
your child in English, Spanish, and
other languages of your choice. This
is a good resource for beginner
readers.

Campfire Corner
Students are learning to manage strong feelings like anger by using the
“Ways to Calm Down”. When strong feelings are under control, children are better able to think clearly and avoid hurting other people's bodies and feelings. Students were given their second "Home Link". We en-courage everyone to take a few minutes and discuss this with your child. Mrs. Scroggin holds special prize drawings for students who re-turn these forms to school.
The 4th grade Boys Basketball Jamboree is on Feb. 22nd at Kesling Intermediate School. The 3 on 3 scrimmages for our 8 elementary schools will begin at 9:00 a.m. Players will receive a schedule of exact game times from their coaches. Come on out and cheer on our Huskies!
Contact Mrs. Hendricks or Mr. Farris if you have any questions.
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We would like to enlist your help with keeping our contact infor-mation correct and ensuring the safety of our children.
We ask that you write a note to the teacher (preferred method) or call the office:
Before 2:00 PM if there is a change in plans for your child’s PM departure from school.
If your child has a medical ap-pointment planned during the school day.
A change in your contact infor-mation
Your child is being picked up by someone other than an adult you listed as a contact when you enrolled.
We appreciate partnering with you to ensure our children are safe and successful!
