You're never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child.
The National Education Association's "Read Across America Day" takes place each year on or near March 2nd, the birthday of Dr. Seuss. Across the country, thousands of schools, libraries and community centers participate by bringing together kids, teens and books. Now in its fourteenth year, this year-round program focuses on motivating children and teens to read, through events, partnerships, and reading resources.
On March 2, the National Education Association calls for every child to be reading in the company of a caring adult.
At the Broad St. School, the Cat in the Hat kicked off this event by visiting all of the students from preschool through 2nd grade in the gymnasium. Mr. Suessmuth started things off with an introduction to "Read Across America Day", and several guest readers joined in by reading their favorite Dr. Seuss books. Readers were Mr. Steve Wehrle, who read "Cat in the Hat", Mrs. Sue McAlary, who read "Green Eggs and Ham", and finally Mr. Mike Grelli, who read "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish". Ms. Schappert's 4th grade students introduced the students to the many of the Dr. Seuss books available in our own school library, for their reading pleasure.
