I send home a letter for families, giving them instructions for the assignment.
I assign a date for the students to bring their treasure boxes back to school. I love seeing the creativity of the families. You can tell that they put a lot of time and effort into this project.
We keep the treasure boxes at school for the week. This gives the students time to show off their creations and also, during this time and it has helped for more student involvement. I give the students their first books that they will have to read at home. They add this first book to their boxes.
Before
taking their boxes home. the students receive a key to remind them "The
key to reading success is practice." They add glitter to their key
because who doesn't love glitter!!
I would love to hear your ideas on how you promote reading at home with your students!
