Mystery Readers!!!

March is reading month, and we are looking for mystery readers to come into our classroom throughout the whole month! A mystery reader can be Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt, Uncle, etc.. They would choose a book (keep in mind we are Kindergartners so a book that should take about 5-10 minutes.) Mystery readers are welcome into our classroom Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday at 11:50 am and should plan on being with us for about 15-20 minutes.
