Amelia Earhart Elementary Family & Comminity Read-a-Thon

Family, community members, and staff from Bonneville UniServ gathered this morning at Amelia Earhart Elementary for a read-a-thon. There was fun and excitement in the classrooms while students, family and community were reading together.

Students were one-on-one and in small groups to share their books. There was a large variety including biographies, mysteries, and joke books. Students and visitors took turns reading to each other and sharing thoughts about what they had read. We were all very impressed with the excitement and skills that each student had.

It was a very fun and rewarding event for those who were in attendance. There were prizes given including four new computers. The read-a-thon was ended with prizes and donuts.
