Reading Night

Tonight was the second of the four big events of the school year of which I am in charge. It was our Family Reading Night and I think it was a reasonable success. We had a good turnout and we got a lot of positive feedback. The theme was "Tell Me a Bedtime Story" and the kids got to wear their pajamas (so they were all ready for bed) and they went as families in to different classrooms to hear a story. It was a lot of fun. It was also, coincidently, a promotion for "Read for the Record". A group promoting early childhood education was trying to get as many people as possible to read "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" today. I read it to 87 children. After this, next week is our fall break which I am ready for.
