On Wednesday afternoon 50 readers, parents, and teachers enjoyed an afternoon celebrating reading in the library. Our first "Stories in Action" was a blast! Only students who read five or more MCBA nominees received an invitation to the party. Teams of students rotated through different stations bringing the MCBA books to life.
Students experience a Breakout in Blackthorn's Apothecary, played Geo Bingo, rode the tram to the Greenglass House, Crossed a buzzline with TsTs and Jed, created a throne tribute to James Hampton, defeated Severine and the Jumbies and showcased their knowledge of the books with MCBA Jeopardy and the sounds of MCBA. They also enjoyed a taste of MCBA with the a special cake revealing our winning book, Space Case, Coral Reef H2O, TsTs's acorns, Jack's beans, Corinnes's oranges, Mimi's seaweed snacks, and honey from the Nest.
A very special thanks to the teachers and parents who volunteered their time to make this fun event possible: Alice Gearhart, Theresa Mullens, Nancy Ames, Janice Currie, Katie MacCallum, Sheree Freda, Emily Lent, Betty Karbon, Jamie Rourke, Sara Ardrey, Wendy Van Epps, Cheryl Canuel, Cheri Karbon, Sarah Schatz, Jennifer O'Neill, Kate Rolland, Holly Lynton, and Guy Ardrey.
