WEST WING SCHOOL NEWS!!

 PARENT SURVEY:    Would you please take a moment and fill out this survey?   The deadline is August 31^st and it would be a great help to have the input of as many parents as possible.   Thank you.     http://eprovesurveys.advanc-ed.org/surveys/#/action/25499/p1524

BATTLE OF THE BOOKS:   This is a fun competition for our 5^th and 6^th grades only.   Students team up in groups of three (two is OK also) and read 4 short novels within approx. 2.5 months and then compete against other teams about the stories.   It’s a lot of fun for the students and encourages reading!!   The L.A. teachers are so excited about this competition and allow the students to use these stories as 1.  Part of their required reading  2. Book talk points and  3. Required book reports!  So it’s a win win for everyone.   Required forms can be obtained through Mrs. Zumstein’s website or picked up from our library.   Have your child bring the completed form to the library before September 1^st.   NOT to worry if your child does not have a team!   We will put them on a team.
