Faculty reading to students thumbnail265347

This school year, South Bay Elementary School has implemented a new schoolwide reading initiative. Each month, every class throughout the building reads the same book together. The students then complete an activity related to the book. For the month of March, students read “The Legend of Rock, Paper, Scissors.” Throughout the school, classes held a rock, paper, scissors tournament in March Madness fashion. Using brackets, the competition went from 32 players, down to 16, then to the top eight and final four. The remaining four students in the rock, paper, scissors tournament competed at the end of month assembly. Pictured is Mr. Egan’s class.

Fifth graders in Mrs. McNeely’s class at Forest Avenue Elementary School took their love of reading to the next level with a special book club luncheon. Students picked a book that interested them and brought it to life through a creative cereal box book report. They explored their book’s theme, analyzed the characters and crafted engaging summaries on their cereal boxes. To celebrate their hard work, students gathered for a themed luncheon, where they proudly shared their projects and discussed their reading. Their presentations sparked excitement and inspired classmates to explore new reads.
