Read Across America Spirit Week
February 26th-March 3rd
We are celebrating reading and Dr. Seuss’
birthday!
Each day, we will feature a different book.
Monday: Cat in the Hat day. Wear your own hat!
Tuesday: Fox in Socks day. Wear your crazy socks!
Wednesday: Wacky Wednesday day. Wear mismatched clothes!
Thursday: Oh, the Places You’ll Go day. Come dressed like what
you want to be when you grow up!
Friday: The Lorax day. Wear a mustache!
Please do not go out
and buy things for these days! Anything that children have at home or can make
would be just great.
Thank you and looking
forward to our Reading Celebration this month!
Dear Families,
During February 26th-March
3rd we will be kicking off Read across America Spirit week at the
Shawsheen. Our hopes are to get students even more excited about reading at
home and sharing their love of reading with the teachers, students and staff at
school. On the back of this page are different days in which students can
participate in. We did this last year and it was a blast. In addition, we are
going to make March a Reading Celebration month. During this month we will do
an All School Meeting Kickoff where we will have a video montage of teachers
and staff talking about their favorite books and where they like to read. We
will send the link to the video for families to watch as well and give families
an opportunity to do the same type of video to share. We are also going to have
a bulletin board in the cafeteria with a Dr. Seuss Theme, the Lorax. The Lorax
wears a mustache so we are going to have students write on a mustache template their
favorite book or a book they will recommend. We will be hanging these around
the cafeteria. During the month, we will share videos that come in and read
some mustaches over the loud speaker. We hope that children will enjoy these
fun events to celebrate reading.
On the reverse are the days for Dr.
Seuss Birthday celebration.
Thank you,
Mrs. King
