Dear families, A Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! We will be hosting a Scholastic Book Fair from August 14, 2018 to August 22, 2018, and our class will have a preview of the Book Fair on Aug 14, 2018. It’s a wonderful opportunity for students to find books they really love. And, we know kids read more books when they get to choose their own, and the more kids read, the more their reading skills improve. I would also love for you to be a part of our Book Fair Open House Event. It’s taking place on August 16, 2018, 3-5pm. You can shop for books for your entire family! And, if you can’t make it, you can also visit the Online Fair starting on August 09, 2018 at: http://www.scholastic.com/bf/forksriverelementaryschool1 The Online Fair: • Includes an expanded selection of books for all ages — from preschoolers to adults • Offers FREE shipping to our school on all orders • Allows you to shop by reading level, grade, and price • Provides a chance for you and your child to create and send wish lists to friends and family so they can shop at our school’s Online Fair • Is open for an extended time, giving you more days to shop All purchases at the Book Fair and Online Book Fair benefit our school. Thank you for helping get more kids reading, and kids reading more. See you at the Book Fair! Mrs. Nancy Mimms
