Because of Winn-Dixie – We have started our class novel – Because of Winn-Dixie this week in class. Each child will has been given their own copy to hold on to while we are studying this book. They are responsible for taking proper care of it, taking it home with them to re-read chapters and bring it to school every day. Every week, we will be covering a few chapters, and after every 5 chapters, we will be having a quiz to ensure that every student comprehends what they are reading. Please ask your child questions about what we have read in class, and encourage him/her (as I do) to bring home their books to review what was read in class. My only rule is asking them not to read ahead of what we have covered in class unless they have been asked to do so. At the end of this book, they will be required to complete a book report. Further information on this will be provided at a later date, when we are closer to completing it. Please let me know if you have any questions.

This week, we are reading chapters 8-10. Our Chapter 6-10 Quiz will be on Friday, September 24.
