Read Across America 2019
"The more you read, the more you know. The more you know, the more places you will go." - Dr. Seuss
Friday, March 1st CEA celebrated Read Across America, a celebration of reading that also celebrates Dr. Seuss' birthday. Lower School Started off their day by taking a readers' oath in their classrooms. Then, K3, K4, and Pre- Primary students took turns visiting the Cat in the Hat in the library. The Lower School participated in to Dr. Seuss Trivia, a Mystery Reader game, and a buddy reading activity, in which students in different grades read books to each other. Several teachers swapped classrooms to read stories for other grades. Upper School students made poems together and tried to guess which Conchita employee suddenly dressed up as the Lorax!
Student Council dedicated a tree to the earth, calling it a Lorax Tree. Finally, we had our annual Dr. Seuss door decorating contest, for which Mrs. Macias' class was selected as the winning door! An immense thank you to Mrs. Vivian Martinez for organizing this amazing school-wide celebration of reading, and to all the teachers, parents and students who helped make this the best Read Across America yet!
