Here are a couple of more read aloud stories to enjoy:
SMEDS AND THE SMOOS- This is another lovely story written by Julia Donaldson. The story works for all ages because it is a simple but effective way of highlighting the importance of tolerance and acceptance of differences (8 minutes).
FOX IN SOCK RAP – This video shows our kids that you’re never too old to enjoy Dr. Seuss. It also highlights how to get creative and present something that is very well known in a new and unique way. If your class has seen this one, Wes also raps other Dr. Seuss books! 6 min.
The Lee Arts Foundation is Bursting into Spring! PTSA’s partner in art is hosting a fabulous silent auction and fun evening of food, drink, and music to benefit and further the work of the Lee Arts Foundation!
