Reading is Fun =[|Battle of Books] = Look for "What's New" for the current Title List. These books are excellent suggestions for summer reading. Next Fall, Ursa Major may participate in the district Battle of Books program. If students have already read books from this list, they will be well prepared for our school battles.

= = [|TumbleReadables]

**TumbleReadables** is an online collection of read-along titles for elementary, middle school, and high school students which features adjustable online text and complete audio narration. Sentences are highlited as they are being read and the pages turn automatically. Look for the user name and password in the school newsletter. Ms. Jones, the librarian, will also be happy to provide the password.

 * Reading is Fun** is a federally funded grant administered by Anchorage School District for Title 1 schools. A free book is distributed to students at Ursa Major three times each year. The distributions are before Winter Break, Spring Break and at the end of the school year. Each student, kindergarten through 5th grade, will be provided an opportunity to choose a book from a generous selection. Thank you, Ursa Major PTA, for contributing funds for RIF.
