Congratulations to all of the students who participated in summer reading this year! We had so many students participate that we had to have two days of celebration this week. On Monday, Anna Cromwell from the Durham County Library Main Branch was our featured storyteller for the 1st-3rd grade celebration. She also gave students prizes for being such good listeners and readers.
On Wednesday, students in 4th and 5th grades came to the Media Center and participated in 3 interactive literacy stations. Students created and filmed book commercials for their favorite books using Flip cameras, shared book recommendations with friends on Destiny MyQuest, and learned more about the Media Center through a scavenger hunt.
All students received a certificate, a bookmark, and a new book for their summer reading accomplishments. Special thanks to our 3 parent volunteers: Scottie Hunsberger, Lisa Rakouskas, and Liz Clark. These events would not have been successful without their help!
The following dedicated readers filled out their entire READO boards this summer. I am so impressed with their efforts to read a wide variety of genres and styles!! Congratulations :)
