A special to <strong>The</strong> <strong>Communicator</strong> by<br />
Ms. Bobbie-Ann Jordan, Principal<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Pennsville</strong> Reading Coaches (Jenifer Mancine, Linda McKelvey, and Marian Sennstrom) hosted a<br />
family reading celebration for their students on April 3 in the Valley Park <strong>School</strong> Library. <strong>The</strong> families<br />
participated in various literacy based games and activities. Each child received a special reading visor,<br />
a book, a bookmark, a dry erase board, and copies of reading games to play at home. <strong>The</strong> reading<br />
coaches also provided important information for parents including why reading at home is so<br />
important, tips for working with their children, word attack strategies, and fun ways to practice sight<br />
words. One of the highlights of the evening was a guessing activity entitled “Look Who Grew Up<br />
Reading Books.” In this activity, students were asked to identify their teachers, principals, and<br />
reading coaches from childhood pictures. <strong>The</strong> evening was a wonderful opportunity for families to<br />
celebrate reading together!
