Hello All~
The end of the year is coming, but we still have some great ways to get involved. This week we kicked off our Tudor Spring Book & Drive where we are collecting books to give to designated organizations, chosen by students. This year, students decided to give books to a school in California impacted by wildfire, a school impacted by tropical storms last fall, a newly developed school in rural Africa, and schools in rural Alaska through Rural Alaska Reads Program. Here is the flyer for the Book Drive: spring book drive families
Our next big exciting activity is our Global Earth Day project, which invites classes all over the world to simply share together what they are doing in honor of Earth Day. In the first 48 hours after the project posted online, interest was received from 27 countries/locations. This will be a super exciting showcase. In May, a blog post and video will highlight #EarthDay2018. Information can be shared here: https://padlet.com/carton_michelle/onehome
Happy Spring!
The book drive idea really spoke to me, since my job is all about putting books in students hands. I would like to start something similar with my students next year. Thanks for sharing!
Let’s talk and collaborate on how to do that!!
Kids having books to read is very important to me, and I am very happy to see that your school is helping to provide books for others. This is a great way to help other communities! I hope to use the example you set to motivate kids in my school to come up with ideas for helping others and to take action on those ideas.
