This Thursday, your child will receive our first book order magazine in their Weekly Conduit. About once a month, I will be sending home book order magazines from Scholastic’s Reading Clubs. Reading Clubs are a great way to build a high-quality home library that is both interesting and relevant to students. While I highly recommend ordering from these catalogs, participation is completely optional.  

                                               Class Activation Code: M9M3J

How to Place a Book Order:

All book orders are placed online through a fast, easy, and secure process. I am not accepting checks or cash brought into school, so please use the information below to access the Scholastic Reading Clubs website.

Instructions:

Go to www.scholastic.com/bookclubs and log in using your user name and password.

If it’s your first time ordering online, use the Class Activation Code: M9M3J to get started

1)   SIGN UP at www.scholastic.com/bookclubs. On the parent page, click the “Register” button in the “First Time Here?” section. Register for your own user name and password. When prompted, enter the one-time Class Activation Code shown above. This code ensures that your order is sent to me.

2)   SELECT the books you’d like to order—choose from thousands of titles—many more than in our monthly flyers.

3)   SEND your order to me online by the due date and your child’s books will be delivered directly to my classroom.

**Submit your order online by the 25th of every month. I will submit any pending orders at the end of each month. Books will always be delivered directly to our classroom.

Our whole class benefits thanks to the free books we can earn with every online order. Thank you and happy reading!

Ordering online is fast and easy!

REMEMBER:

Use the levels on the catalog to help find appropriate books for your child. 

RL: is grade level equivalent.  Our class is full with solid 4th, 5th, and even 6th grade readers!  So look for books with 4.1-6.0 or higher. 

LEX: Lexile Framework.  600 or above for our fantastic readers!

Dear 5th Grade Students and Parents,

 First a congratulations to students on finishing their first successful week of 5th grade!  It has been so much fun getting to know your students by our daily interactions and the note to my teacher assignment.  I am excited about all the great learning we will be doing. 

 I also wanted to let you know that today we signed up our class for Edmodo- our virtual classroom where students will be able to check homework, projects, and tests, and communicate with peers about educational topics. We discussed Edmodo etiquette and what is appropriate to post. Our daily homework, as well as any special resources will be posted daily.  I encourage you all to visit it regularly. You can e-mail me privately and ask for your parent code to sign up.  I will talk more about this at BTSN. 

Important information:

  • Please note that our Back to School Night (BTSN) has been changed to Wednesday, August 14th, from 7:00-7:45 pm in our classroom.  I look forward to meeting you all in person!
