Dear Indian Hills Families,
March is Reading Month was a big success at Indian Hills! Thanks to the Romeo Area Kiwanis Club, our students enjoyed reading Judy Moody was in a Mood. Over 130 students completed the Judy Moody reading challenge and their mood ring and keychain prizes are coming home today. Students who completed the challenge will get their $10 Scholastic Book Fair gift certificate at the Book Fair in May.
Additionally, today the Romeo Masons will be presenting brand new bikes to the winners of our 3rd and 4th grade Books for Bikes reading raffle challenge. Our 3rd and 4th graders read well over 60,000 pages through the month of March, and today four lucky readers will win bikes!
Our students LOVED the visit from author, Mat Heagerty, this week. What an engaging way to close out our March is Reading Month activities and to keep alive the love of reading (and writing!). Like Mat told our kids yesterday - you don’t need to get published to make a book. You just need to put your creative ideas to paper and share them proudly with others!
If your child would like a second chance to purchase an autographed graphic novel from Mat Heagerty, you can print and turn in this flyer by Friday, April 17th. Books will be available for pick up at Calliope Bookshelf (66870 Van Dyke, Washington). Additionally, if your child ordered a book in our first order, but did not get to bring it to school on the day of the author visit, Mat has graciously offered to make and send a sticker with his autograph and a drawing that can be placed in the books. He’ll be sending those out to us soon and we’ll get those to the kids.
