Readers, Readers, Tell Us All About It!

This weekend I squeezed in some much needed pleasure reading. I am so excited to have more time during the upcoming months to read.  I also love reading books to my children, and this summer I get to listen to my son read to me!  Take this brief survey to share about your reading experiences.

Principal on the Roof!

The principal of my son's elementary school is camping out on the school roof tonight!  Mr. Stevens encourages home reading by creating unique events if the kids meet the year's reading goal.  The goal was to read at least 500,000 minutes by the end of the school year, and the kids read 504,227 minutes this school year!  He invited families to visit tonight for a short time so the children could send up gifts, giggle, and get excited about their accomplishment.  Mr. Stevens is a great principal who works hard to encourage learning, inspire creativity, build school community, create lasting memories, and most importantly keeps school FUN!!!!
