Procedures for AR Make sure you are reading in your ZPD. Check to see if the book is in the AR program- look for the sticker or check www.arbookfind.com. There may not be anyone near you giving aid. This is an independent task. Record the Date, Book Title and Author, the Reading Level, and your points earned in your Book Log. Bring your log to the library each week! You should know your username and password by the end of the first 9 weeks! You may test in the Library before school, after school until 4:15, Saturday’s from 9-11, and in your classroom as your teacher allows.

Pre-K, Kinder Reading Buddies In order to combine literacy skills and oral language development, The Reading Buddies will be a little different this year. Parents should read the books at home or in the library and discuss the following questions so the student is prepared to answer them without any assistance. The student will roll a big dice to determine which question will be answered. Students should be prepared to answer the question loudly and clearly and in a sentence. For the first nine weeks, students need to do 2 books a week starting August 18. We will model the procedure the first 2 weeks during library class time. Students may answer the question during library time, afterschool, or Saturday from 9-11. QUESTIONS Who is the main character? Where did the story take place? When did the story happen? What is the problem? How was the problem solved? What was your favorite part of the book and why?
