Lunch in the Library

As students in grades 2-5 have been reading and taking AR quizzes throughout the nine weeks, they have been earning prizes like bookmarks, pencils, and erasers as they work their way to reaching the point goal that has been established for them. (The goals are individualized for each person.) One of the special choices in AR prizes for students in grades 3-5 who reach their point goal is a coupon for lunch and recess in the library. I love that so many students are excited about and choose this option! Students who turn in their lunch coupon are allowed to bring a friend who has also reached 100% of their AR goal. I think this is a great way to celebrate a nine week's worth of reading! Here are some of our recent lunchers-

Some 3rd graders wanted to watch the PBS show SciGirls during their recess time.
SciGirls is a show that features girls putting science and engineering to work
in their everyday lives. I'm a fan of it!

Because it was National School Lunch week, we had parents join us for
Lunch in the Library. One father and son had a good
game of chess going during their recess time!
