Getting Smarter this Summer !

Hi All
I hope you are all having a great summer. I know some of you were wondering what you were going to do with all that free time  I know those video games are fun but there is so much more you can be doing !
Who wants to come back to school smarter  than when you  left? I know you all do !
So let's start today ! Here are some ideas !

You know reading definietly makes you smarter! You can read or someone can read to you or you can take turns reading . It doesn't even matter what you read !
Don't have anything to read ?
Here are some suggestions :

• Go to the borrowing library house by the flag pole at the school . I just put great new books in there !
  

Take them home read and return ! I will be putting new books in every few weeks , Let me know if you read some of these !

•   Check out the libraries near your home and get a free library card. 

These are the ones closest to your house.:

Houston Public Library - Collier Branch - Many Libraries are  offering free lunch at noon each day for 1-18 year olds ! check on the website for details
 http://houstonlibrary.org/location/collier-regional-library
Read a few books together with your family as you get your lunch.
.
Harris County Library - Fairbanks Branch or Cypress Creek - Barbara bush -Library http://www.hcpl.net/location/barbara-bush-branch-library-cypress-creek

On Tuesdays-  Preschool Story time with songs and craft- 10:15  or 2:00 -Ages 3-6 years

They have so many Science Books that are really cool !

• And also remember you can go to Pebble Go and Tumble Books either at home or you can use the library computers. 
• If you have access to a computer , one of my favorite sites is NAT GEO KIDS    https://kids.nationalgeographic.com/
• This site has reading , videos and games !  .
• The Reading Express- That great big bus that comes to the school every Tuesday 11-12 AM and allows you to check books out for your family to enjoy ! 

Happy Getting Smarter !
