This week in Owl Country!
¡Esta semana en Owl Country!
This year, CHPS joined the Beanstack family! Beanstack is a reading log software that allows all of our students to log their reading minutes, participate in reading challenges, and earn badges and rewards for their reading time. Beanstack has a mobile app that students can use at home from any tablet or phone. All they need is their ClassLink login! And YES, grown-up read-aloud sessions are encouraged and count towards their minutes 😉
Visit our website to download the app, learn how to log in it, and start reading with your child at home: https://www.colonialhts.net/o/chcps/page/beanstack
