Students watch as Mr. Clark starts off the presentation.
A captive audience!
Mr. Clark is asking questions about reading.
Students listen as Mr. Clark explains the upcoming play.
Snow School was entertained by Eugene Clark, local artist, magician and entertainer. Mr. Clark performed an assembly for us that focused on READING! He gave us some insight into famous leaders and their love of reading. Students helped him share the idea of adventure, filling your brain with lots of information learned while reading and the way reading communicates ideas. A play was performed by our students that promoted the strategy of 5 W’s- who, what, where, when and why, and the 1-H- how. We watched the students perform and used the strategy to retell the story we just heard and saw, much like you would do when reading text. Everyone had a great time! Many thanks to Mrs. Alcodray and the Snow School PTA for funding this great opportunity!
