Reading Tip of the Day!
Try new things: The more students know about the world, the more they can get meaning out of what they read. You can expand kids’ background knowledge and vocabulary in lots of ways. For example, playing or watching sports can help children connect more with books about sports. Walking in a park might get them interested in bugs or birds. The possibilities of new experiences for children are endless and so are the books.
Last day for the Book Fairs! Online sales continue so if you can’t make it check out the online stores.
