Will Your Child Complete the 40 Book Challenge?
More and more students complete the challenge every single day! We are incredibly proud of those boys and girls. Several students are on their second challenge card. One student is on the third card!
We continue to enjoy watching the children discover new books that they love. You should hear the boys and girls cheer when we announce that it is time to read. They ask for class time to share their favorite book finds, and I continue to have a waiting list for many of the popular titles.
