Manatee students are participating in the Half READMarathon. The goal of READMarathon is for participating students (READRunners) to build reading stamina while reading over the course of 26.2 days. READMarathon is designed to improve reading stamina by introducing students to reading persistence and debunking the stone age stereotype that reading is boring, in return giving kids the opportunity to enrich their lives with the benefits of reading.
Students can read at school, at home, or on the go, and can read as much or as little as they want on any given day with a goal of reading a minimum of 800 minutes in 26.2 days. Reading minutes may include books, magazine articles, read alouds, instructions, and even recipes!
ALL READING COUNTS!

Lights -Camera - Leadership
Manatee Elementary is a Leader in Me School, which means our school models and teaches Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. We invite you to assure good character development in your child by joining us in adopting, teaching, modeling, and celebrating these 7 habits:
- Habit 1: Be Proactive “I’m in charge of me.”
- Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind “Have a plan!”
- Habit 3: Put First Things First “Work, then play.”
- Habit 4: Think Win-Win! “I win, you win, we win.”
- Habit 5: Seek First to Understand then to be Understood “Listen before you speak.”
- Habit 6: Synergize “Together is better.”
- Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw “Balance feels best.”
What is a habit? How can we connect the habits to movies we watch?
