Book Fair & Math & Science Family Night


This posting is late because I was busy helping kindergartners make books lists at the Book Fair. In the Fall many of them were struggling to write their names, today they were writing their names, book titles and prices!

All students visit the Book Fair with their classes, but it is also open before and after school and all the way until 8pm on our Family Night this Thursday. Parents are welcome to stop by the Book Fair at anytime during the school day. For parents who buy teacher presents at the end of the year, I think this is a perfect opportunity to buy something you know the teacher really would like. Each teacher has a wish list of books attached to a brown bag on top of the shelves at the Book Fair.

For Family Night we are having a Math & Science Road Trip with fun math and science activities created by the teachers. PTO will also be selling hot dogs, chips and soda.

The brain behind the Book Fair is PTO's Clair Wall, whose daughter boasts the title "student living closest to Burks." If you are interested in helping with the Book Fair next year, drop in and say hi. If you don't know who Clair is, just follow the South African accent!
