Elementary Kicks Off One School, One Book Program
Pierce Elementary kicked off the beginning of the One School, One Book program on Wednesday, October 1st. It appears a large egg had hatched and some suspicious footprints were found all over the hall ways as students entered the building for the day. The excitement continued with some special guest appearances by "Uncle Beasely", the dinosaur character from the book, The Enormous Egg by Oliver Butterworth. Students received their copy of the book at the end of the day from our special guests.
One School, One Book is a national program designed to create a shared reading experience within a single elementary school community. A chapter book is chosen, every student receives a copy, and every family reads that book at home over the course of a single month. Activities at school coordinate, promote and enrich the shared reading experience. We hope everyone will enjoy the story and family time shared during this project.
