PERMISSION SLIPS FOR THE JUNIOR GREAT BOOKS PROGRAM ARE DUE TO CLASSROOM TEACHERS THIS THURSDAY DECEMBER 15TH!

The nine week program will start the week of January 18th for grades 2/3 and January 19th for grades 4/5.  In the JGB program, students read age appropriate short stories and discuss the material in small groups using a shared inquiry approach. The discussion groups, led by parent volunteers, help students increase their comprehension, interpretive thinking, and oral and written language skills.

Second and third grade groups meet on Wednesday mornings at the lower campus from 8:40 - 9:25.  Fourth and fifth grade groups meet at the upper campus on Thursday mornings from 8:40 - 9:25. 

Permission slips for students to participate and parents to volunteer as leaders came home last week. You can also access a slip through the Junior Great Books, click here.
