February is I Love to Read Month! We will be doing some fun reading activities at school and we want students to also be reading at home! Our goal is for every student to read at least 300 minutes in the month of February (reading around 10 minutes each day would reach this goal)! We are going to log our reading through Beanstack. In order to log minutes at home you can download the app and log in for your student using their school email or Clever badge. We will be giving away weekly prizes! See the attached letter for more details!
