October 8, 2018

We just ended another GREAT week at Killian! 

Our Fall Book Fair begins on October 9th.   If you would like for your child to purchase books , please send the money in an envelope with the following: book fair, student's name, my name, and the amount enclosed. (ex. Book Fair,  Nicholas Dailey,  Ms. Dailey's Class, $20) I will make sure your child visits the book fair to make his/her selection.

Family Literacy Night  will be Thursday,  October 11th @  6:00pm.   The purpose of this event  is to make parents more aware of techniques they can use to make their child more literate.  During literacy night, your child can dress as  their favorite  book character, engage in various literacy stations,  shop at the Book Fair, and participate in Book Giveaways!  I look forward to seeing each of you!
