Mystery+Reader



**What is a MysteryReader?** Mystery Readers are special guests who come to our classroom to read a story to students. Mystery Readers can be parents, grandparents, older siblings, or other relatives. Occasionally mystery readers may be staff members from Paloma Elementary. **When do Mystery Readers come?** Mystery Readers come to our classroom on Fridays at 2:45. However, if a Mystery Reader needs a different time to suit their schedule, we'll be glad to accommodate! **Why use the Mystery Reader program?** Students love to see their parents, grandparents, and special friends get involved in our classroom. The Mystery Reader program allows anyone who wants to become involved because it requires little time, but the memories will last forever for the surprised students! **Where do I go to sign up to be a Mystery Reader?** The Mystery Reader program will not begin until September. I have a Mystery Reader Sign up online. I will send a reminder home, or you can let me know through email that you would like to be involved in this program. Your child will be SO excited that you participated, but remember to keep it "top secret" until your big day arrives! Once you've signed up for a date to come read to our class, you can start thinking of a book you would like to bring to read. If you don't have a book, I will be glad to have one for you. The week prior to your visit, I will send you a reminder, along with a request for five clues to read to the studentsthe day of your visit. There should be 5 clues that start general and become more specific. By the fifth clue, your child should be able to guess that you are the special mystery reader for the day!
