Dr. Seuss Week at Byrd
Next week we celebrate Dr. Seuss Week and Read Across American Day. Students will enjoy an opportunity to dress up each day and chances to answer daily trivia. The school will enjoy a special treat on March 2nd to celebrate the actual birthday of Dr. Seuss.
All families are invited to our Family Literacy Night on March 5th from 5-7pm. Come out from 5-7pm for a FREE dinner provided by the Sunshine Bus. This night is going to be packed full of fun learning- we’ll have a photo booth with props, Seuss themed literacy stations for all ages and each station will provide your child with a literacy activity they bring home to use again and again. There will also be lots of prizes raffled! Reach out to Ms. Pound with any questions (804-221-2288).
Go Nutz for Reading!
The “Go Nutz for Reading Program” is back for the 2020 season!
Each student will receive a bookmark that has eight (8) baseballs on the front. Students will color in a hat for every book they read! Once the student colors in all eight (8) baseballs, a parent, guardian or teacher will sign the bookmark.
Due Date
The student will submit the bookmark to their teacher no later than Friday, March 27th.
Prize!
All students who turn in a completed bookmark will earn a FREE ticket to the April 21st Flying Squirrels game! The Flying Squirrels want to reward students for keeping up with their reading in and outside of school!
