Reading+Log

Just as athletes spend hours practicing skills related to their sports, students must practice reading to improve overall learning. Reading will impact every other aspect of your student's learning throughout his/her school career. At Pioneer, we believe that every student has the potential to learn and grow through practice, effort, focus and perseverance.

Daily practice in reading will not only reinforce skills taught in class, it also increases fluency and comprehension. In 5th grade, students should be spending a minimum of 20 minutes each evening reading. On the weekends, it would be beneficial if students read at least 30 minutes. Of course, it is always encouraged to spend additional time reading if possible.

Your student has a calendar in his/her Tiger Notebook that is used to track nightly reading. On the back of the calendar is a chart to record title, author and number of pages read. Please initial the calendar **every evening when your son/daughter has completed the required reading**. Spend a few minutes discussing what your student read. Ask questions about the main character, plot or the most exciting part of the story.
