-Special guest readers will read to our students throughout the week.
-Students will design their own book covers of their favorite book which will be used to keep track of reading goal stickers.

Read In Week is a Divisionwide initiative held annually to encourage a lifelong love of reading and to enhance literacy awareness among students, staff, parents and community members. We invite all our families to participate in Read In Week with us by reading yourself, with your child or with someone in the community.
