Family Literacy Night

On Thursday we had our Family Literacy Night. There were 8 different classrooms in the Preschool and Kindergarten hallways focusing on various children's authors with activities to go along with those authors and books. Each family received a READO board which was a BINGO board full of the 8 authors and rooms. As the families went to the various rooms, they got to mark off the matching boxes on their READO board. At the end of the night, they received a prize if they got a READO marked off on their boards. 
We had a great turnout, thanks to everyone who was able to make it!


Here are the students completed Mo Willems character drawings. They did such a great job! 
There were plenty of Mo Willems' books displayed for the families to read.

There were activities around the room related to Mo's books such as writing, mazes, coloring pages, drawing the pigeon, etc. 
Kala found her drawing! 
The students were also able to vote whether they would let the pigeon drive the bus or not by gluing a pigeon above yes or no. 
It was pretty even! 
Here are some of the pictures of the other authors that were featured. I didn't get picture of them all! Here is Eric Carle, author of the Brown Bear, Brown Bear books, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and more!
Rob Scotton, author of the Splat the Cat books
Laura Numeroff, author of the If You Give a Mouse a Cookie series
Families were also able to visit the book fair and purchase books if they wanted to. 
 
Thank you to everyone who was able to come support our student's learning! We had such a fun night and we hope you all did as well!
