K-1 Literacy Night 2017: S’more Reading Fun

Gingerbread Man Literacy Night

Over 100 Kindergarten and 1st Graders had a blast last night at our annual Family Literacy Night! Students dressed in their pajamas and enjoyed reading an eBook version of The Gingerbread Man, learning a little bit about the folk tale, and participating in hands-on learning stations related to the story.

RRHS Dragon Tales Football Players were here to interact with the students and share their love of reading and learning. They also brought a huge box of t-shirts to give away to our students, so many students entered their names in the drawing and won a Dragon Tales T-shirt!

Fun with Postcards from Camp

Last night’s Postcards from Camp Bluebonnet FUN Night was lots of fun!  Third through fifth grade students from England, Sommer, Jollyville and Forest North and their parents were entertained with a lively performance of the Bluebonnet book, Postcards from Camp.

Five students performed in a Readers Theater rendition of Postcards from Camp and did a FABULOUS job!  Everyone enjoyed their storytelling and their hard work and rehearsing paid off with a job well done.  (Below: Xander, Lilly, Kendall, Taylor & Elle)

Then, we were all in for a treat as we participated in a camp style “sing-a-long” led by the fabulous Mrs. McDaniel (music teacher extraordinaire at Forest Creek Elementary).

The evening concluded with a delicious campfire treat — s’mores!

Thank you to all of the families who joined in the fun!  We hope that some of you are able to attend our final Bluebonnet FUN Night next Thursday, December 6th, at Forest North Elementary!

Fall Into Reading Night – Tuesday 10/16

We hope you’ll join us for our first Fall Reading Family Night at England Elementary next Tuesday!  We’ll have fun stations for students and parents to visit, and all students attending have a chance to win free books!

Thank you to our fabulous PTA for making this awesome event possible!  See you on Tuesday 🙂
