Panther Reader



Fourth and fifth grade teachers were discussing ways to encourage our students to read more non-fiction texts and came up with a cool plan! We created a Panther Reader bookmark and students will have an opportunity to read twenty-five Science or Social Studies books to earn a ticket for a party at the end of April. Our wonderful librarian has a cart filled with science and social studies books for our students to check out and read each day! Students must take the AR test on the book and score at least 85% or higher on each test. We started this project two weeks ago and many students are already halfway finished with their books! Many books on the cart covers information we have studied already this year and it's a great way to review what we've learned so far. Keep up the great work Studio 214!
