Monarch Award
This week ALL of our students in grades K-3 voted for their favorite Monarch Award book. There were so many great books on the 2018 Monarch Award list and it was hard for some of our students to choose a favorite!
After briefly reviewing the books on the list, students were each given a voting "ticket" to place in the box next to their favorite book.
It was a close vote but the Harrison School winner was Sam and Dave Dig a Hole! The runner-up was One Day in the Eucalyptus Eucalyptus Tree and Red: A Crayon Story came in third.
We can't wait to find out which book will win for the entire state!
Buestem Award
The Bluestem Award is for students in grades 3-5. For this award, students must read 4 or more of the books in order to vote. We had many students qualify this year and we had a voting party for those who qualified. At our party, students voted, ate snacks, and played a Kahoot game.
The Harrison School winner was Roller Girl followed closely by The Wild Robot and Save Me a Seat.
4th and 5th Grade
Also this week, our 4th grade students have been working in groups to research different environmental issues and our 5th grade students continue to work on creating their book trailers. Stay tuned to see their finished projects!
Happy Reading!
