On March 2nd, in honor of Dr. Seuss's birthday, parents and students at the Franklin kicked off their morning by reading together. As we are accustomed to at the Franklin, there was a large turnout of parents. Both the adults and the children were delighted in the break from their everyday routines.
Annie Connors, Literary Specialist at the Franklin, hosted parents in the cafetorium to share strategies for improving oral reading and reading comprehension. For those unable to attend, you can read through her
presentation and also view the
handouts - sample questions to ask your reader and favorite read aloud books. Annie is a wonderful resource for our students. You may reach out to her directly at
connorsan@newton.k12.ma.us.
