The year is off to a great start! Over the summer, many second, third and fourth grade students checked out up to 8 books from the Media Center for summer reading. The children really enjoyed this opportunity! Over half these children have turned those books back in and checked out some more. If you still have yours, bring them on in and check out some of the NEW books we are putting out each day.
Merrick-Moore’s fourth grade students will compete in a poetry competition the week of April 27th to celebrate National Poetry Month. Students will compete in three rounds. The first round will be held in classroom, the semifinals will be held in the Media Center, and the final round will showcase 20 poets presenting their original work to family, students and staff.
Third and fourth grade boys turned out Tuesday, April 21st after school to grab a snack and settle in for 60 minutes of reading in the Media Center. Family and friends and the boys themselves pledged money that will go towards buying library books of high interest to boys . Way to go boys!!
