Since March is National Reading Month, each week, there will be a new set of reading ideas students may try at home.

Week 1's activities are:

- Have someone read a picture book to you without you seeing the pictures. Try drawing the story and retell it.

- Read to a family member, pet or stuffed animal.

- Read Dr. Seuss's The Foot Book aloud and create dance moves to go along with the book.

- Take a field trip in your own backyard or to a local nature centre and start a nature guide with observations.

- Check out and download a physical audiobook or digital audiobook from the library or another source.

- Read books about the same topic by different authors and ask questions about the differences.

- Read a book at the breakfast table or bring books back to bed after breakfast.

This list is from Seussville.

If you can, bring in sidewalk chalk on Monday, March 6 for our Act of Kindness of the day!
