Reading Camp

Do you remember going to camp as a youngster? The days were filled with activities as you moved from session to session. Our third graders are going to have a full day of Reading Camp on the Lincoln grounds. The camp day is scheduled for Monday, June 6th from 9:00-11:30 and 1:00-3:30pm. We are in need of several items to make this happen, including 2 large tents and one canopy, per class. The tents and canopy could be put up Sunday evening or Monday morning and taken down Monday after school. We will be very careful with them! We are also in need of several supplies for the day.   If you are able to help us, please indicate on the Materials Sign up Genius Sheet below. 

 

Also, we are in need of several volunteers to help make this day happen.  If you can be a camp "counselor" that day, we are in need of volunteers. Please fill out the sign up sheet below  if you are available to help that day. All materials and directions will be provided!  We can always use extra hands and your child would love it!  It's your help that makes this a successful event! Thanks for considering. Click on the link below to sign up to volunteer or to bring materials for the camp.

Like any other skill, reading proficiency comes from practice and encouragement.  Thank you for encouraging your child to read nightly!  The end of the second trimester means the year is more than halfway over!
