March is Reading Month Contest

UPA is having a school-wide reading contest to see who reads the most books this month. The winner of the contest from each grade level gets to be "Principal for the Day."  Every time your child reads a book and completes a book report form for that book, s/he will receive credit for that book.  The books must be read at home. Books read at school for guided reading or independent reading do not count toward the contest. Book report forms for my class will be available from me or you may print them below. Completed reports will be displayed outside of our classroom. Books read should be books at your child's level and not too easy for him/her.

March is Reading Month-Flash Mob

At what the teachers thought would be an all-school read in, to celebrate Reading Month, we were flash-mobbed by our students singing and dancing about reading. I can't believe they kept a secret that long! Most of the teachers had no idea it was going to happen!
Ms. Ritter and Mr. Kefgen wrote the lyrics and the entire AMPT staff was in on the surprise!
