Pre-Kinder parents:
As you are aware, Wednesday, January 27 will be a "virtual day" at AST. Section B is scheduled to come to the library first period. Please use this time (or any other time that is more convenient for you) to read a book with your child. Children love to read (or te read to), learn from reading and enjoy spending time with you. It is an investment in their future!!

Remember, our library is open Monday thru Thursday from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm, and Fridays from 7:00 am to 2:30 pm for you to come to check out five books for your children. This holds true for your children in the "Big School".


Padres de Pre-Escolar

Como ya es de su conocimento, el miércoles, 27 de enero, será un "dia virtual" en AST. La sección B está programada para venir a la biblioteca. Por favor utilize este momento, o cualquier otro a su conveniencia, para leer con su hijo(a). A los ninos les encanta leer, que les lean y aprenden de esto.

Parents of Kinder student: We have been reviewing how we call the person who writes the words in a story and how we call the name of the person who draws the pictures. As a review at home, please take a moment and pick up any children's book you have and read the title of the book with your child. Also, read the author's name and ask your child to repeat the word "Author" with you, as the person who wrote the words in the story. Do the same with the Illustrator, as the person who drew the pictures.

Padres de familia de alumnos de Kinder: Con sus hijos, hemos estado aprendiendo cómo llamar a la persona que escribe las letras en un cuento (Author) y cómo llamar a la persona que hace los dibujos (Illustrator). Tome un libro de niños que tenga en su casa y lea el titulo. Lea ademas el nombre del autor y pida a su hijo que repita la palabra Author. Haga lo mismo con el ilustrador, Illustrator.
