Calling All Mystery Readers!
I would like to invite any parents, grandparents, relatives, older siblings, or any other special people to surprise your child by being a “Mystery Reader” this year in our classroom. Students love having their family, friends, and relatives visit our classroom to share in our learning by reading a favorite story aloud to our class. Mystery Readers will visit us beginning on Wednesday’s at 10:30-10:50 and 1:20-1:40 during the months of October-June. Readers are asked to bring a book or two to read. Readers may also bring materials for a quick craft that goes along with their book. Please remember to stick to the 20 minute time frame (Passing out supplies takes time.) J We will expect you to read with the kids for 20 minutes. J Due to food allergies please do not bring in food. J
Please sign up to be a Mystery Reader for the 2010-2011 school year. This is on a first come first serve basis. I will make sure that very one who has volunteered to be a Mystery Reader has the opportunity to read.
Please indicate at least two Wednesday dates (if possible) that will work for you, so that I can accommodate everyone. If your child has a birthday during the school year, you may want to think about reading on a Wednesday during their birthday week. You need to return to me in a “top secret” envelope the bottom portion of this letter to school with your child. I will get back to you as soon as I can to confirm your official Mystery Reader date.
Remember, you are a mystery reader to the class, so try not to tell your child when you will be coming! We will provide you a clue form to fill out about yourself when we set the date. I will share this with the class, so that they can use these clues to infer who our reader may be.
We can’t wait to meet our 2010-2011 Wednesday Mystery Readers!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Chiaverotti and Mrs. Stinard
