Weekly Update from Mr. Lucy, Thursday, October 27th.

Hello from room 217,

  I found much improvement with home reading assignments this week. Remember that I want my students to read the passages aloud to you each week. Hopefully, the reading can be followed with a discussion as your child is reading the questions. Another assignment went home today.
  I want to share a quote from my own reading of 40 Reading Intervention Strategies for K-6 Students, by Elaine K. McEwan. "Pervasive reading, in every subject, in every physical space, reading just about everything, just about all the time--is the key to reading success." Peter Temes. I hope you catch your child reading at home at least 30 minutes per night, five nights a week.
  We began writing a piece of choice this week. Ask your child about his/her heart map.
Thanks,
Tim Lucy
