    World Read Aloud Day is February 5, 2025

    World Read Aloud Day (WRAD) is a global day that celebrates the power of reading aloud. Teachers will take some time on this day to share a favorite Read Aloud with their class. Students will also have the opportunity to partner read with a friend. Reading aloud can help students practice oral reading fluency, public speaking and helps listeners of all ages build literacy skills.

     

    Global School Play Day is February 5, 2025

    Global School Play Day is observed annually every first Wednesday in February and this year it will be held on Wednesday, February 5. It promotes the importance of unstructured, regular play for children. The campaign was started by a group of six educators in 2015 who realized that playtime for children was decreasing both at home and in school, leading to negative impacts on childrens’ development. They immediately took action and initiated Global School Play Day, with over 65,000 children participating in its very first year.

    Students will participate in board games and other activities in the classroom.  Look for more information from your child’s teacher in the coming weeks regarding what your child can bring (items must fit in backpacks, be used only in the classroom, and we are not responsible for lost items).
