Last post of the school year

Hi everyone - this will be my last post of the school year.  I hope you have found the information useful.  Enjoy the last two months of school and then the glorious days of summer.  Remember to read so you can avoid the summer slide.  Here is a poem that I found.  All it takes is 20 minutes a day!

Twenty minutes a day

by Richard Peck

Read to your children

Twenty minutes a day;

You have the time,

And so do they.

Read while the laundry is in the machine;

Read while the dinner cooks;

Tuck a child in the crook of your arm

And reach for the library books.

Hide the remote,

Let the computer games cool,

For one day your children will be off to school;

Remedial? Gifted? You have the choice;

Let them hear their frist tales

In the sound of your voice.

Read in the morning;

Read over noon;

Read by the light of Goodnight moon.

Turn the pages together,

Sitting close as you'll fit,

Till a small voice beside you says,

"Hey, don't quit."
