Blanton Elementary hosted Family Literacy Night. Parents were invited to learn literacy strategies to help students at home. Interactive fitness activities focusing on literacy were demonstrated & parents learned how to take advantage of the districts Parent Connect program. The Carrollton Public Library was there to sign up students for library cards.
In Ms. Kopriva’s 4th grade classroom, students became the teachers. Family members completed classroom activities such as creating a reading response, choosing appropriate books with the 5 finger rule, identifying text structures, and completing forms in Google Classroom. 4th grade students then used rubrics to evaluate the work for depth and complexity. All participating students were able to take home a book for their efforts.
