We are now seven days away from opening our Spring Scholastic Book Fair! Flyers are going home this week. Be sure to set up an eWallet to make shopping quick and easy for your scholars. Instructions can be found on our book fair homepage:

Wednesday through Friday-- 8a-230p for scholars
Thursday Parent Shopping Event--445p to 630p
Online shopping runs March 1st-14th, via our homepage.
The Dillo Readers' Advisory Club helped Ms Margocs spend Scholastic Dollars from the last book fair to purchase new books for the library!
It's a read-aloud and lesson week for all grades:
PreK is listening to either Fergal and the Bad Temper or Families, depending on their current curricular connections. Fergal learns many ways to cool down when he's angry; we learn that families may look different, but members care for each other and celebrate together!
Kindergarten classes have a book about animals--tigers and worms, in What About Worms? Can Tiger and the worms get over their fear of each other? Why are worms so important to our gardens?
First and second graders are making connections with what they've learned about animals as we read A Polar Bear in the Snow. We're talking about why camouflage is helpful, making guesses about the polar bear's actions based on its needs...and we're learning that animals sometimes need more than just food, water, and shelter.
Third grade classes are practicing their email etiquette this week by writing business-appropriate emails to their teachers with curricular content.
Fourth and fifth grades are brushing up on their nonfiction reading skills with text features, main idea, and supporting evidence practice. Talk to your scholars about the nonfiction books they've chosen to check out!
See you next week at our Spring Scholastic Book Fair!
