**Reading Extra Credit Opportunity**

Hi Students and Parents--

Our first marking period will officially end on 10/27. I like to give students an opportunity for extra credit each quarter for reading/language arts. Since this assignment is extra credit, it is OPTIONAL yet highly encouraged. I will be replacing the student's lowest test or assignment score in either reading OR language arts depending on which assignment is the lowest and which grade this opportunity will benefit the most. Please find below a link to the extra credit assignment. Your child is to choose a picture book or chapter book at their appropriate reading level and complete the book review form. They may read a new book or use a book they have read since the school year started. The book review form MUST be in the student's handwriting with word choices and sentences written by the student. Students must write in complete sentences with proper capitalization and punctuation where necessary. Spelling should be to the student's best abilities. Please do not correct their spelling for them. Parents can guide students but this needs to be 2nd grade work done by your child.

This assignment is due on Friday October 21st. Late work WILL NOT be accepted.

Please let me know if you have any questions!
