The Joy of Reading


For 25 minutes each day our students get the opportunity to find any book they want and read it anywhere they want.  They can then check these books out or check others out to take home and do the same that night.

Getting to Know You

Students tend to learn best when working in groups.  They are able to collaborate ideas, learn new vocabulary and understand that people work in different ways.
