Mystery Reader

2- Birney's Mystery Reader Schedule (2021-2022)


What is a Mystery Reader?

Mystery Readers are special guests who come to our classroom to read a story to students. Mystery Readers can be parents, step parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, older siblings, or other relatives.


When do Mystery Readers come?

Mystery Readers come to our classroom on Fridays at 11:50 am, however, if a Mystery Reader needs a different time to suit their schedule, please contact me at Kelley.Birney@chufsd.org.


Why use the Mystery Reader program?

Students love to see their family members get involved in our classroom. The Mystery Reader program allows anyone who wants to become involved because it requires little time, but the memories will last forever for the surprised students!


Where do I go to sign up to be a Mystery Reader?

The Mystery Reader program will begin October 4th. Please let me know via email if you would like to be involved in this program and we will pick a day that works. Your child will be SO excited that you participated, but remember to keep it "Top Secret" until your big day arrives!


How does the Mystery Reader program work?

Once you've signed up for a date to come read to our class, you can start thinking of a book you would like to read. If you don't have a book, I will be glad to share one with you. The week prior to your visit, I will send you a reminder, along with a request for 3 clues to read to the students throughout the week. There should be 3 clues that start general, become more specific and build excitement!
