WE HAVE READ 25, 50, 75 BOOKS!!!!

 

We are going into the new year with 23 students already having read 25 books. We also have 2 students that have read 50 books! I think that there will be some 100 book readers this year!!!! 

 

Reading is such an important part of their education.  They read in every content area.  There are word problems in math, ingredient lists and directions for experiments in science, plus the textbooks themselves for each subject.  We want the students to enjoy reading and to become lifelong readers.
