Edison Reading Olympics pledge envelopes went home last week. All students should be gathering sponsors and thinking about what they will read. You can recruit sponsors throughout the entire event.
September 30th through October 9th - Log reading minutes onto the Minute Recording table found on the envelope. Please use a timer or clock. No guessing. Remember, it counts if your parents read to you. October 10th - Start collecting pledges from sponsors.
October 12th through 16th - Return pledge envelopes and monies collected to classroom teacher. Every student will get a bookmark from their teacher in exchange for their envelope. If you are waiting on a pledge you can turn it in the next week. All reading minutes need to be turned in to count for the classroom prize.
October 19th to 21st - Prizes will be drawn for envelopes returned.
October 23rd - Gold, Silver and Bronze prizes awarded to the top three classrooms with the most minutes read. Keep collecting outstanding pledges.
If you have any questions about this program feel free to contact Tammy Young at entyoung@gmail.com.
The Book Exchange shelf is in the front lobby. Please search your home libraries for books that you can donate to the school. We could still use donated books, particularly for 4th and 5th grade reading levels. Please encourage your students that need books for the Reading Olympics to visit. Thanks for supporting our kids. If there are any questions related to the Book Exchange contact Amanda Terhes at jaterhes@msn.com.
Now is the perfect time to start new transportation habits! Whether your children will walk, bike, ride the bus, or carpool, a little preparation can go a long way towards keeping children safe, healthy, and prepared to learn. the 4j Transportation Department's Safe Routes to School Program can help with resources, information, and events to help get you and your family walking and rolling through the year. All schools are encouraged to sign up for National Walk + Bike to School Day. (https://btaoregon.org/get-involved/walkbike-to-school-day/) on October 7th this year. Let's see how many people we can get walking and biking to school that day (and beyond)! Questions or more information, call Program Manager Shane MacRhodes at 541-790-7492 or email at macrhodes@4j.lane.edu
