Draper Elementary

In April we celebrated National Library Month. This year the theme was Experiment With a Book, so we talked about scientists. We read Meet Einstein by Mariela the K- 2^nd grade made their own light-catcher. We had flash cards on the wall of pictures of things that scientists would use. We had the students see if they knew what a scientist would use them for and then turn it over to find out if the students were right.  The next book that we talked about was Now & Ben by Gene Barretta. What he had invented and what they are like today.  Each student received a book mark and a reading chart. As soon as the students had finished the chart and brought it back, they received a free paperback book. We were able to gave away 457 books this year. The students had a lot of fun with this theme this year.
