School Meeting with Accelerated Reader Committee

Today, Mrs. Deep met with all of the Reading teachers within the Accelerated Reader Committee to discuss the theme for AR program this year. This year, the theme will be "The Achiever in Me." This theme will be focused on Hollywood and the Red Carpet. Mrs. Deep explained the AR procedures, as discussed in the prior post, again to Reading teachers. Then, Mrs. Deep explained how each grade will keep tract of the AR points students receive this year. The teachers will put up a Red Carpet display on their hall. Stars will be displayed on wall to show the level of points the child has reached. For example, their will be large stars on the wall to represent 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, and 150 points. When a student reaches 25 points, the teacher will place their name on a small star and allow them to place it outside in the hallway under the 25 point star. As the students progress, they will move their stars up the points line. Mrs. Deep also announced the due dates for the Rotunda Decoration for each of the grade levels. Each grade level has a corner in the rotunda that they need to decorate in accordance to this year's AR theme. The decorations can start going up on October 29th, and the judging will take place on November 2nd. First place will win an ice cream party for the teachers and students.
