The theme for reading week was "Read Around the World". Each class chose a country to learn about and make a display for the room. The children received passports to "travel" to the different countries and learn new things. Our country was Austria. We also traveled to Ireland, Australia, Belize, the Netherlands, Egypt and Germany.
The children wore red and white on one day to represent the colors of our flag. On Wednesday the high school athletes came to our school to read to different classes. Derek Adams, an all-state wrestler, read
Mike Mulligan and the Steam Shovel to our class. Cody Rathbun, a baseball player, also came to visit and speak with the children. The Chariho mascot also visited classes during the visit. We ended our reading week with an all-school silent reading period out in the halls.
