New Berlin Celebrates Literacy May 7-11


  New Berlin’s Literacy Week-----May 7-11, 2012
Our ENTIRE school will celebrate our love of reading next week!
Don’t forget to wear your favorite BOOK character costume on WEDNESDAY!

Monday 5/7- Each student will decorate a mini poster (in class) with the cover of their favorite book!   We will display these covers ALL OVER the school! 

Tuesday 5/8 (Boosterthon Pep Rally)- REUSE and RECYCLE!!!  -A book you’re tired of reading can be someone else’s treasure!  Bring in a gently used book that you would be willing to swap!  Each class will hold a gently used book swap within their own classrooms.  Books will NOT be given back.  If you bring a book, you will get a book.  This is a great way to change up your book collection!! 

Wednesday 5/9 (NO Early Release)-Book Character Parade:  Dress up as your favorite storybook character!  Please ensure that your costume is SAFE and is indeed a storybook character.  Each child will carry the book that their character is from and take part in the school parade.  Please bring a change of clothes if your storybook costume is too uncomfortable to wear for the remainder of the day

Thursday 5/10- Celebrity TEACHER Readers

Friday-5/11  Mrs. Reese & Mrs. Polydore will work in the elephant barn at the zoo with the top reading classes from primary and intermediate AND the top reader from each grade level.  The BIG EVENT ;-) will be recorded and shown on the news in the afternoon!! 



 
Each grade level will focus on a different book each day on the
morning announcements.  Ask your child what the special book was when they get home!
