An orange calendar went home yesterday, marking the beginning of the Pizza Hut Book It! program. Your regular kindergarten homework is to read 20 minutes every night. If you can read an extra five minutes a night for 20 nights of the month, you will earn a coupon for a free personal pizza. Mark you calendar with a smiley face each night you read for 25 minutes; this could mean the child is reading, or an adult is reading to the child. Turn it in to me at the end of the month. If you ever lose the calendar, just make another one on your own or find one on the web and mark it as you would the orange one. Students who earn a coupon all five months (Oct-
Feb) will also be invited to a pizza lunch at school in the spring! Happy reading!
