Book Buzz
BOOK BUZZ is a Peru Intermediate video series designed so students can create READING RAINBOW style book reviews and recommendations. Students select and read books that excel in both illustrations and/or story content. After reading the book they may submit a book review via our Google Forms submission link below. Deadlines for reviews fall in the middle of each month (about the 15th). Submissions will be evaluated and selected to be presented in video format, based on the following criteria:
1. The book excels in illustrations or story content.
2. Summaries are well written and incorporate the key elements of writing summaries.
3. BOOK BUZZ books should show viewers that reading can be a pleasurable and rewarding experience.
GOALS:
The goals of BOOK BUZZ are:
- To celebrate and encourage the pleasure of reading by familiarizing them with outstanding children's literature.
- To motivate students to appreciate literature and seek out good books which are recommended by peers.
We encourage all of our families to work with their child to submit a book review using the submission form button below!

Positive School Environment Team
As a way for students to learn the importance of the strength of Gratitude, we have organized grade level service projects taking place over the month of December.
- 3rd grade is collecting toy donations for local families;
- 4th grade is doing a food advent collection for area food shelves;
- 5th grade is collecting supplies for Elmore SPCA.
Our Peru Pride Brigade, 5th grade student leader volunteers, have been busy with our #KindnessCampaign by creating Kindness Bingo cards and doing random acts of kindness throughout our school. They then gave a presentation at last month's Peru Pride Assembly on it!
Below, you will find two videos from our Peru Pride Assembly in November on the strength of Gratitude. Peru Pride starts here!
