Library Announcements Read For 20Sequoyah is joining forces with the Children's Reading Foundation of Knox County to encourage parents and children to read for 20 minutes daily. Your K-3 students will be bringing home a Reading Pledge and a Reading Log this week for you to sign with them and return to their classroom teacher. Reading Logs will be sent home monthly. Please track the number of minutes your child reads each night and add them up at the end of the month. When the logs are returned to school, we will tally the amount that Sequoyah has read and report it to the Children's Reading Foundation. Let's show Knox County what awesome readers Sequoyah students are!
Library Volunteers Still NeededWe need many volunteers to help our library run smoothly. Please consider donating some time with us this year. If you can help as little as 30 minutes a month, we would greatly appreciate your help! Requesting Accelerated Reader TestsDid you know that you can request for an Accelerated Test to be ordered and imported into our school database? I am happy to order tests for books/series your student(s) may have read at home or through the public library. Just email me the name of the book/series and author and I will check and see if a test is available.
