Final Day of PARP!

Today marks the end of PARP Week at Countrywood!   There's been lots of reading, prizes, and fun!  

• To wrap up what has been an awesome week, students and teachers were treated to an hour-long Theatreworks USA production which included a musical revue of some popular kid favorite books - Teacher from the Black Lagoon, Dogzilla, Grumpy Bird, I Want My Hat Back, Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse, Love Splat, The Grasshopper and the Ant. 
• We are well on our way to our PARP goal of 50,000 minutes!  Great job to everyone who submitted Reading Fish!  We collected 784 in total over 5 days!  Keep reading and we'll reach our goal in no time.
• Ms. Covington/Ms. Wilcox's class (1,095 minutes), Ms. Schwartz's class (1,255 minutes) and Ms. Nicolino/Ms. Sullivan's class (2,425 minutes) will all enjoy dance parties in the coming weeks for having the most minutes read in each grade.  Great job!
• EVERY Countrywood student will receive a Congratulations Certificate and coupon for a free sundae at Applebee's for participating in PARP Week.
• We had incredible responses to the At Home Activities - Riddle of the Day, Book Review, Aquatic Comic, and Reading BINGO!  Each child who completed these activities will receive a Certificate and a reading-themed pencil or bracelet for their hard work.
