WELCOME BACK!
I hope everyone had a great summer and that you read a lot! It's time to bring in your NBLU (No Book Left Unread) summer challenge sheets. Remember you were to read ALL summer long and write down the titles of your books and the number of pages you read. Make sure your parent has signed your paper and turn those in to Mrs. Gaines. If you lost your paper it's okay, just write your list on notebook paper.

I can't wait to see how many pages we read this summer!
