Attention all fourth-grade readers! Our class will host our annual Spring Reading Celebration next Friday, May 17, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. in the school cafeteria. This special event is our chance to recognize all the hard work we have put into our independent reading projects this semester. Our second-grade reading buddies from Room 108 and our school principal, Mrs. Henderson, will join us as our special audience.

The goal of the afternoon is simple: share one book that you read this spring that made a strong impression on you. Whether you loved a thrilling mystery, laughed at a graphic novel, or learned new facts from a biography, you have the opportunity to recommend that title to a fellow reader.
