📚What an amazing celebration at the Tomás Rivera Award 30th Anniversary Literature Fair this Saturday! We had Kinder and 1st grade students marching in the parade and 4th and 5th grade students dancing and performing poetry to introduce authors at the San Marcos Public Library! 📚

🗓️Next week is Read Across America Week! 🗓️
We will have dress up days and fun activities to celebrate reading all week long!
✨📚Did you know that a child's ability to read has a direct effect on their future success? Reading with your child helps to increase their vocabulary and improves their reading fluency and comprehension. The week of March 2nd, we encourage EVERYONE to pick up a book and read to a child. Whether it’s a beloved classic or something new and exciting, we encourage you to spread the joy of reading. For more information, visit NEA’s Read Across America site at www.readacrossamerica.org! 📚✨

📙We had a READ-tastic November with 34,000 minutes of reading logged during Touchdowns for Reading, a cozy Fine Arts & Literacy night, and an awesome Literati Book Fair! Thank you to everyone who participated and supported literacy and the library!
Winter Break’s around the corner and I’m inviting students to continue the reading celebration with Winter Reading Bingo! Students who complete the sheet and get it signed by a parent will win a prize!
Happy reading, Hernandez Heroes! 📘

📖 Let’s read, Heroes! 📚

Is your Hero reading this summer? Reading during the summer breaks helps keep our Heroes from summer regression in their learning.
Our librarian, Mrs. Porter, has put together a wonderful summer reading list for our Heroes. These books can be found at our San Marcos Public Library. Remember to log your minutes and help us win the trophy for most minutes read this summer! Keep reading Heroes! 🦸‍♀️ 🦸‍♂️
