Love of Reading
February 9th-15th
Students can submit mini book reviews, which will be displayed (anonymously) for their peers to read and for each review they write, their name will be entered into a prize drawing.
The second program will take place in the Language Arts classes: each class will keep a tally of pages read during the week. Students can read at home or during school or in the library: we’ll count all pages! On Friday, each class can tally the total pages read and return the forms to the library. The class that reads the most pages will win a class prize. Most likely a pizza or eegee’s party.
Parents: Love of Reading is for you too!
Parents are asked to read with thier children at home and come to the Library to compare their perspective of the story with their child.
Please sign up for one of the days below to share your thoughts and collect an appreciation gift!
