This week Shorecrest celebrates reading with our first week-long Reading Festival!
Monday - Author Visit: The students will be in an assembly with visiting author, Michael Patrick O'Neill. If you wish to order books but did not return the order form, books will still be available to order and have signed after the visit as well. I will send home new forms upon request or you can get one from Dottie Smay in the library.
Tuesday -Book Character Dress Up Day: Don't forget that this is the day that the students come dressed as a favorite book character. They should bring the book and the completed "Act It Out" book report to school. It will be such fun to see all the different book characters at our Town Meeting. Town Meeting is on Tuesday this week rather than on Monday. Please refer to the parent letter sent home earlier this week for further information.
Wednesday - Drop Everything and Read: The entire lower school will all stop and read from 8:15-8:45 on this day. What a great way to emphasize the importance of reading! You might want to help your child select a few favorite books to bring to school to read during this time.
Thursday -Afternoon Reading Festival: This begins at dismissal at the picnic tables. If your child is participating, please meet them at the picnic tables at 2:45. If your child is not participating, they will dismiss as usual. The workshops will begin at 3:15. There will be volunteers to help guide you to the different locations. Please attend the workshops that you are signed up for.
Friday - Grandparent's Day! We are looking forward to seeing all our Grandparents and Special Friends!
