Mystery Reader!

The Mystery Reader Program is a great way for families to stay connected to your child's first grade classroom. Every Friday, a parent, family member, or other special person signs up and comes to read 1-2 picture books to the class.  The best part is that no one knows the identity of the Mystery Reader until they walk in the door.

Family Share!

Family Share is a special way for families to share their culture with the class. Our students and teachers love to learn about what makes your family unique and the special traditions you have. Your family's culture is important, and we encourage you to share it with us and it helps us to build our classroom community.!  Please note, Family Share does not have to be a secret from your child; especially if your child will  help prepare the share and/ or present to the class: 

Ideas for sharing your family's culture with the class may include, but are not limited to:

• Read a book(s) that shows your family's culture

• Share family photos

• Share a dance or music

• Use a map to highlight areas of the world that are important to your family

• Share traditional clothing or other artifacts 

• Lead the class in a brief craft project (prepare and provide all materials ahead of time)

• Create a ppt to share with the class
