News from Eddy Elementary
One, Two, Three, Four…Eddy is reading The Lemonade War!
March is Reading Month is always a festive time in elementary schools. This year Eddy is ready to tackle The Lemonade War as our One School, One Book project. Each family receives their own copy of the book to keep, courtesy of our Eddy Elementary PTO. Each week students will receive book marks with age appropriate questions for the chapters covered that may be turned in for a prize. Families will be asked to share pictures of themselves reading the books and Tuesdays will be yellow shirt day. Various other activities will occur throughout the month culminating in a “real” lemonade war with Palms Elementary. The proceeds from Eddy’s lemonade stand will be sent to Alex’s Lemonade Stand, a national cancer charity.
In preparation we have been placing lemons in surprising places and each teacher is decorating their door. Check out the pictures below to see how we are celebrating March is Reading Month!
