Hillside Elementary School

Dear Families,

It is so important that your child reads every day. Just like in anything you are learning to do, whether it’s a sport, dance, riding a bike, or learning a new language... you need to practice, and reading is no different! Each night your child will bring home a reading log. Please sign or initial each night after your child has read their books. Below are our homework procedures:

1. Bring home your reading bag each day.

2. Open your reading bag when you have quiet time.

3. Read your Take-Home Book (black and white copy) to a family member.

*Parents please sign your child's reading log and return to school. Your child is working towards earning reading prizes for their hard work! 

4. Talk about your book and what you're thinking.

5. Have fun with your reading!

6. Put your book BACK into your reading bag. Be sure to put your reading bag in your backpack to bring to school the next day!
