Please help your child understand the importance of taking care of media center books. Guidelines for book care include:
· Store your book in your book bag when you are not reading it
· Keep books away from younger siblings who may like to write in them or cut or tear pages
· Always have clean hands when reading books, and do not read them around food or drinks
· Use bookmarks to mark your place
· Keep books away from pets
· Turn pages carefully from the top or bottom corner of the page
· Do not leave books outside, as they may get wet
· Put books in the book drop when you return them to the media center
Thank you for the opportunity to work with your children this year. I look forward to helping them develop a love of reading!
