Important Information for Scholastic Book Orders

Class Activation Code: H4TTL

Dear Parent,

Now it's easier than ever to find the perfect books for your child -- shop our NEW online Book Clubs Web site. Choose from a much-wider selection of books than in the printed flyer. Plus, you can send your orders directly to us online and use your credit card to pay.

Best of all, we earn a FREE book for the classroom library every time a parent places an order online.*

It's so simple! Here's how it works:

• SIGN UP at www.scholastic.com/bookclubs. On the parent page, click the "Register" button in the "First Time Here?" section. Register for your own user name and password. When prompted, enter the one-time Class Activation Code shown above. This unique code ensures that your order is sent to me.
• SELECT the books you'd like to order -- choose from thousands of titles -- many more than in our monthly flyers.
• SEND your order to us online by the due date and your child's books will be delivered directly to our classroom.

Ordering online is fast, easy, and secure.

Of course, you can still order using the form from the printed flyer. But why not see for yourself how convenient it is to order online?


Thank you,

Team W

Dear Parents,

          We are always thinking of fun ways for the students to learn while having you in our classroom.  We have decided to have a “mystery reader” this year to read to the students every month.  We will have it once or twice a month depending on how many people want to be involved.  The mystery reader will pick their book(s) of choice to bring and read to the class.  Parents are more than welcome to bring in an item that has to do with their book (either as a prop or to share with each student). 

The mystery reader will secretly come to the class from 2:05-2:40.  This is right after recess.  The day(s) have not been determined.  Please sign up on the blog if you are interested and we will send you a list of open dates and times.  We would love to get you on the calendar to come read.  When you set your date we ask that you please send an email with “clues” about who you are.  We will read the “clues” to the class so they can guess who they think the mystery reader is.  We look forward to hearing back from everyone! 

Thanks!
