It is a fourth grade expectation that you are reading independently at home at least 150 minutes per week. Please record your minutes, total them, and then present your reading to your parent for their verifying signature. Independent Reading Slips should not be signed before Thursday night or Friday morning. The number of missing reading slips is on the rise, let's all work together to fix this problem. Thank you!
