APRIL is Reading Month!<br />
The Keystone Reading Association has declared "April is Reading Month" for all<br />
students in the state of Pennsylvania. Families all across the state will be<br />
sharing the joys of reading at home with their children.<br />
There will be a calendar coming home for "April is Reading Month" for all<br />
students at Quarry Hill. You can read with your children 15-20 minutes per day<br />
and initial each day you complete the reading. Be flexible. If you miss a day,<br />
you can make up the time the next day or over the weekend.<br />
Children develop a love of stories and poems when they are read to on a<br />
regular basis. You can help enrich and expand their world through the richness<br />
of literature. You will create memories with your children as you share stories<br />
that made you laugh and cry.<br />
At the end of April, please return the calendar to your child's teacher with the<br />
child's name and the teacher's name written clearly on the front. We will have<br />
an assembly in June where each child who participates will be given a<br />
certificate in front of our whole school! Please help them achieve this<br />
worthwhile goal by reading each day in April.<br />
