Character Day
This event consists of students coming to school with their favorite book and dressed as their favorite character from that book. The purpose of this activity is for students to share and discuss their choices with one another during the English period. During recess, they will be exposed to what other students enjoy and may have the chance to talk about their books with students from another section.
Literacy Tents
Some grade 8 students will be reading a story to Pre-K and KG1. There will be tents and a green area where students sit to enjoy the story and a short activity prepared by the students.
Arabic Story Discussion
Students were given a short story to read at home last week . During the event, the teachers, librarian, and students will have a discussion about the major events in the story, inviting students to share their reflections ( what they would have done instead and the moral of the story in relation to real life).
