Read Across America is being celebrated this week across the nation. East Vincent has planned many activities to celebrate and encourage a love of reading in our students.
Students in STARS are extending their celebration with Read Around the Planet. Our first and second grade classes were partnered with another class in the United States through the TWICE Read Around the Planet program. Our first grade class is partnered with a class in West Virginia and our second grade class is partnered with a class in New Hampshire to share their love of reading with each other.
Our classes will each participate in a one hour videoconference using PolyCom videoconferencing equipment. Our first and second graders each have designed background scenes and are excited about presenting Reader's Theatre stories complete with costumes and props to their partners.
On March 2, the National Education Association is calling for every child to be reading in the company of a caring adult.
