Are you reading every night?!
Just a friendly reminder to all parents and students that students should be reading a minimum of 20 minutes per night, if not longer from either an assigned nightly read or a book of their choice or one at home. Reading does a lot of amazing things to not only the brain but the body as a whole!
For a full body workout, read a book!!

Book Orders for Middle School: Grade 6 to 8 for December 2017!
Hey Everyone in Middle School,
I've got a few book orders in print for December. If you wish to order, I'll be collecting the orders with money until Friday, December 8, 2017 at the end of the day (2:45 p.m.) If you wish to place an order with me, please bring your order and money to my class anytime throughout the day before Friday. I will bring your orders to your class upon arrival. Also! For any parents or students with very young siblings, I have also a few Pre-K and K-2 book orders if you'd like to bring them home! Same date and time apply for these as well! Also, if I do not have enough book orders to go around this time, you can simply look through the book order, write the item number down and pass it to me!
I have to order early to ensure that the orders will be in before the holidays!
Thank you!
Ms. Ellison

Dear Parents:
My name is Ms. Ellison and I am your child's Literacy Support Teacher. I may have sent a book home with your child starting yesterday, Monday, September 11, 2017. I request of the parents and guardians each night for the younger students especially, that you please sit with your child and listen to them read. This should be the full book for Grade 2's.
If your child is in Grade 4/5, my requested reading time is: 20 minutes MINIMUM per night from their books. It is my hope that again, a parent or guardian will be sitting with your child and listening to their reading practice each night. I will be assigning some other homework in the days to come but for this week, reading practice is what will be sent home.
If your child is in Middle school and I have sent a book home with them, their reading time is a MINIMUM of 20 minutes per night, preferably a minimum of 30 minutes though. However, if they are interested in reading longer, they may do so!
PLEASE FOR ALL GRADES, HAVE YOUR CHILDREN RETURN THEIR ASSIGNED BOOKS DAILY! This is very important so they will have their book to read during the time I take them, or during quiet reading times.
I will be sending a Reading log home with them this week as well.
Thank you and sincerely,
Ms. Ellison

Hello and welcome back to all the students and parents! I hope everyone has had a wonderful summer break and that the new school year is full of excitement and anticipation of many new experiences! As you know, I am your Literacy Support teacher. Within the next few weeks, I will begin working with new students. I welcome any questions and your appreciated support from home to help guide your children through their Literacy learning path! I will continue to update my Teacher page as the time goes. I will be posting homework and other important notices. Please be reminded that when I send homework home, I require a minimum of 20 to 30 minutes of reading per night. I am always so excited to begin working with your children because it is amazing to see them grasp reading concepts and build confidence in reading and writing!
Thank you!

Parents of Ms. Ellison's Students:
Please have a look around your homes for any books that may belong to my class. Your child will know which ones need to be returned. I would appreciate if they can be returned by tomorrow: Friday, March 4, 2016 OR at the latest by the first week after the March Break: March 14 to 18. These books are part of my classroom library and they also may be books that the students have not had a chance to finish reading. I appreciate your help in finding and returning any misplaced books!
Thank you!
Ms. Ellison
