I Love to READ Month!

For the month of February, Bird's Hill School has been celebrating I Love to READ Month. Mrs. Dent Scarcello created a month-long challenge with literacy activities, which was sent home in calendar form at the end of January (and can be found in the February newsletter). This week, we have been having D.E.A.R. (Drop Everything And Read) once a day. We also coordinated a fun bulletin board idea where each class received a giant heart and the students had to write what they love to read! It has been neat to see students checking out the hearts on the GIANT bulletin board across from the library!

We are looking forward to "Dress like a Book Character Day" . . . next Friday, February 17th!

Today, Felicia volunteered to be recorded by Mrs. Dent Scarcello as she read "Bear Feels Scared". You can listen to it here. The reading has been recorded onto a CD and will be used in the primary classrooms. Thanks for being a great role model Felicia! I know your sister in Kindergarten will be excited to hear your voice in her classroom!
