This month, we will conclude our participation in The Global Read Aloud with the book Front Desk. We will be doing a variety of activities to connect with other classes to discuss this book.

Two reminders:

1. We have free reading at the beginning of class every Tuesday and Friday. Students should arrive with a book in hand as these are designated reading times. They are encouraged to come to class every day with a book.
2. We are participating in the 40 Book Challenge. Students have reading passports in their comp book to document their completed reads.
