Monthly Motivational Reading Program... Color Your World….Read! Students receive small prizes for participation and their names are placed in a monthly drawing. Grades K-4 K-4 students received take home activities to learn library skills or receive themed coloring sheets. A Big Thank You to All K-3 Parents who helped make our 1st Library/Collaborative Max’s Words Writing Project a great Success! Students learned how to create sentences, sort words into categories including parts of speech. The stories turned out to be incredible! “Max’s Words” is a book that teaches children the writing process. Congratulations to all 2nd & 3rd Grade Series Book Club Participants Second grade students chose sets of books to read (Puppy Place, Black Lagoon Adventures, Babymouse, etc.) 3rd grade students also read series books including the Carole Marsh Mysteries, Spiderwick Chronicles, and others, too. 3rd grade students in addition to just reading the books, they also did extension projects, too.
