We’re delighted that so many kids are enjoying reading for pleasure in ‘Teach Your Monster: Reading for Fun’. Here’s what people are saying about the groundbreaking new game:

“This gets a double thumbs up from my 6 year old. He is already a great, confident reader and loves books but he absolutely loves to play this game regularly. He says the best thing is how you can explore villages and do jobs for the villagers. He really loves building his book collection. Thanks for a brilliant free game!”
★★★★★

“My son loves playing with his monster. Reading the recipes has really helped him practise following directions!”
★★★★★

“Another nail by the team of Teach Your Monster to Read! This app has been the perfect follow up for my daughter who is in love with the journey of the little monsters she loves so much. We are now improving reading at such a fast pace. We are forever grateful.”
★★★★★

“This new follow up is great. The app has helped my granddaughter with her reading and has already been a daily event.”
★★★★★

Grab it today, whilst it’s free on the Apple app store for a limited time. Coming to Android late 2021.

Good morning parents,

There are only 2 days left to make your choice for next year. As a reminder, your choices are full-time digital academy or full time face to face instruction. It is so important to have these choices now because we cannot finalize our staffing or begin our Master Schedule without your intentions.

I realize this is a difficult, almost impossible decision to make for many of our families. Please know we are here to help. Please email [email protected] with any last minute questions you might have. Also, if you have any issues with making your selection in Focus, you may email your selection to me. I will need to know 2 things- Which option are you choosing? And Do you have reliable internet at home?

No matter what decision you make or what the school year holds, please know that we will do whatever it takes to make this year a safe, productive, and supportive experience for you and your family.

Have a great weekend,

Billy Millard
Principal
Buck Lake Elementary
