This afternoon Mrs. Chapman delivered the January Principal's Book of the Month to each classroom. The core value for January is Knowledge and the book that was chosen to represent this trait is What If? by Samantha Berger and Mike Curato. One of Mrs. Walters' kindergarten students was so excited that she exclaimed, "It's book time!" as Mrs. Chapman entered the classroom door.
Check out these wonderful books that are available in Sora! Students have access to eBooks and audiobooks with their Monroe County username and lunch number password. Happy reading!
