My Project

Let’s make reading the Best activity ever! Not only at school can we read, but we can take our new reading bags wherever we go! Put down the devices, turn off the TV, and have a fabulous time reading. Our 2nd graders will be so excited to read at niggt with a special finger reading light or take a fun beach ball to our local Washoe Lake and read on the shoreline.

If you can read, you can do anything you want to do in life!

Together, let’s make reading the best activity ever!!
