ACCELERATED READER INFORMATION
Our class goal for the Accelerated Reader Program is for each student to 
successfully complete at least one AR test each week.  Some students still 
choose books for voice-assisted testing.  As they gain confidence in 
completing these tests independently and develop proficiency in reading 
skills, they will transition to tests without voice assistance.

We ask that you help your child prepare for the weekly AR test by reading 
their library book together, and asking your son/daughter questions about the 
story--characters, events...Download the AR form on the MHR Library website 
and assist your child in filling it out.  Please make sure your child brings 
the library book and AR form to school on Friday morning.

We look forward to helping your children become enthusiastic readers!        


            
   
PLEASE HELP YOUR SON OR DAUGHTER DEVELOP MATH PROFICIENCY BY PRACTICING   
SUBTRACTION FACTS UP TO 12 T HOME. CONTINUE TO PRACTICE ADDITION FACTS ALSO 
AND STUDENTS WILL BEGIN TO SEE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ADDITION AND 
SUBTRACTION FACTS. INDEX CARDS CAN BE USED TO MAKE FLASH CARDS. 


 
Please practice these math facts at home so your child can answer them 
quickly from memory:
