September Scholastic Recommendation

I've been thinking for a couple years that it might be helpful if I gave you an idea of which French books from the Scholastic catalogues might be most applicable to our current learning. I will endeavor to do this each month this year.

In this month's Club De Lecture catalogue, I noticed that items #22-26 all have a seasonal theme. This will be our first grade 1 science topic. In particular, item #23 includes a letter recognition game that would be an excellent idea for the beginning of grade 1 (and it's only $10)!

Our grade 2s might be ready for something like #18, which is a collection of Robert Munsch stories (always very popular), and while #39 might be a difficult read for the beginning of the school year, it does match up with their Earth and Space Systems science unit.

There are lots of other great options in the September catalogue. Hope you have time to give it a look!

September orders (always completely optional) are due this Thursday!
