Calendar of Events

2009-2010                              OUR READING COUNTS THEME THIS YEAR IS “Going Places With Books”.  We will focus on books that teach us about the world and other cultures as well as maps and globes.  Students may bring in a photo of themselves in another place in the world (on vacation, visiting relatives, etc.) for our “Ask me about…” wall.
