FWCD Reads with First-Graders
March 2 was National Read Across America Day. The day was established by the National Education Association (NEA) in 1998 to help get kids excited about reading. Each year, the day aligns with the birthday of beloved children’s book author Dr. Seuss. At FWCD on National Read Across America Day, first-graders wear crazy socks, and faculty/staff come together to share their favorite stories with some of their favorite Lower School friends.
Head of School Eric Lombardi read The Boo-Boo’s that Changed the World: A True Story about an Accidental Invention (Really!) by Barry Wittenstein and illustrated by Chris Hsu. View the video. Special readers came from all three of the School’s divisions!
