The students at Myers Elementary School celebrated “March is Reading Month” with an under-the-sea theme.  Throughout the month students participated in many fun activities. Students set reading goals.  If they met their goals they were invited to play book bingo and earn some yummy treats.

MCDOWELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL students 'bear' down

At McDowell Elementary School, Mrs. Mullin's group of second-grade readers got a bit of a scare after reading “That Bear Is Back.”

The story describes a boy's encounter with a bear in his bedroom.


Each of the students created a monster hiding in their bedroom then wrote about their scary creature. The monsters and stories are displayed in the school hall under the warning "Danger, do not open!"


MCDOWELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL seconder grader go crazy over gum, er. book!

A group of sassy McDowell Elementary School second graders read the Giggler story, “Crazy Chewing Gum” and went crazy over the book!


Each Student selected a gum-covered character to "turn into" and wrote about what happened to them. This group, with ATA Ms. Donna's help, had fun doing this activity.





SIXTH GRADE ACADEMY hides teachers in the showcase!


The Sixth Grade Academy's front showcase has been decorated in honor of “March is Reading Month.” The display has the staff hiding their face behind a book and students have to guess who it is. The students are having a great time trying to figure out who is behind each book.
