Literacy Night,

     I was super excited to be part of WM Irvin's first LITERACY night!!! Sarah and I had the opportunity to provide a session for our Latino parents.....in Español!!!
     Our session was based on guided reading levels. We explained parents how students are placed at each reading level, and informed them of the level that correspond to each grade level. We also displayed textbooks ranging from A to Z to give parents an idea of the text their students should be bringing home and reading. We emphasized the importance of reading every night for at least 20 minutes using the picture below!
     We had a good turn-out at our session....however, I was blown away when I went to the cafeteria and saw all the parents and students that attended the literacy night. Overall I thought it was a great success, and I have no doubt that our parents and students had a great time! Events like this would definitely bring our community and school closer together.
