We hope that you are all enjoying your Family Read Aloud The Seven Wonders of Sassafras Springs.   Our Read Aloud began with an assembly that included a Readers Theater introduced the story to all of our students through a presentation of the first 9 pages of the story.  Mrs. Evans was our narrator, Mrs. Charlot was Aunt Pretty, Mr. Smith was Pa, and Brenden Perry was Eben. 

Information about what pages to read each night have been sent home in either hard copy or email.  The nightly readings are also listed on the blue book mark each family was provided.  This Webpage link is here to provide a “one stop” place for reading assignments, home projects and Ponders.  We also have fun sites that will enhance the reading experience of The Seven Wonders of Sassafras Springs.     

We hope that our Family Read Aloud is a “wonderful” family experience.   Mrs. Charlot is receiving a very high number of student answers to our daily ponders. Students are curious about what will be put into the showcase each day.  Be sure and watch for new items.

Enjoy reading and discovering the wonders of your home, family members, and community.
