Family Book Night

We have a great PTA who along with the reading teacher wrote a grant for Target to have parent book nights. The grant covered the cost of books for all students. Kathy developed wonderful experience for parents and students to share their books. It was delightful. We even showed the Witches movie earlier in the year as part of the program. This wonderful night got me thinking about where we could have enhanced the program with technology. Students did PowerPoint presentation of books as one of our School Improvement Activities. It was very difficult in terms of extra time needed. I wonder what we can do to get parents to help us with technology and their individual students, it could be like our science fair nights where parent and students come to work on a project. I wish I would have thought of it before. Maybe next year if we apply for the grant we can think about how technology impacts our program.
