Promoting a Whole School Love of Reading
Providing students with the motivation, encouragement, and accountability needed to read independently on a consistent basis helps them develop reading habits that will lead to increased confidence, improved reading skills, and opportunities to find books that they enjoy reading. Art Goad Elementary wants to inspire students to feel the pure joy and love of reading something they are interested in and not just a required reading assignment. Reading for pleasure is a habit fostered at a young age. Once a month Art Goad ES will have a “FOR THE LOVE OF READING” event where the whole school will celebrate reading through fun events. On Friday, September 29, 2023 students and teachers read a book outside of school; Nurture Nature. It was very peaceful and everyone Loved Reading today and the weather was beautiful!
