March is literacy month at Clark! We kicked off the month on Dr. Seuss's birthday (March 2nd) with a visit from the Cat in the Hat and finished the day with an all school game. It was a word scramble using the phrase "Read Across America." The winning classes at each grade level earned a little prize. It was amazing how many words some of the classes came up with. Mrs. Hoell's kindergarten class made 30 different words!
The fun doesn't end there, as we have fun activities and author visits planned for the remainder of the month. Asia Citro, the author of the Zoey and Sassafrass chapter books series and other books (and former Clark parent) will be one of our visiting authors and Jim Whiting, author of many non-fiction titles for students, will be the other. We can't wait for all they have to share! Also this month is a fun spirit week and a whole school book BINGO game. Finally, we'll wrap up the month with a book swap. It should be a blast!
