Harlem Elementary celebrates I Love To Read week

Harlem Elementary celebrated I Love To Read Week February 29th through March 1st. Students participated in themed dress-up days such as Sweat it out with a good book (Wear sweats), Dr. Seuss' Birthday (Wear all green for Green Eggs and Ham) and Character Day (Dress as your favorite book character).

Grades kindergarten through 2nd took Dr. Seuss' birthday to a higher level as they centered activities around Dr. Seuss books, special hats, and concocting awesome oobleck! The students and community were also treated to captivating assemblies by award winning author, Mr. Ben Mikaelsen.

The end of the week found Accelerated Reader awards for the month of February, followed by an Ice Cream Party for those students that reached their reading goal for the month. All in all, I Love To Read week was a fun, exciting time enjoyed by readers of all ages, adults included!
