Reading (Biographies)
Ask your child about the biography they have begun reading. Encourage them to share with you the interesting facts they learn from their book! (Note: Please do not have your child read ahead. I have divided up everyone's books, and it is important that we stay on the same schedule. However, students should feel free to re-read sections to make sure they are understanding their book.)
