The student has been participating in a DEAR program where they drop everything to read. Their favorite books are about the character Flash Ashley. They have been using a Blue Box for reading activities with cards to check their own answers. In art, the student made 3D African animal masks from cards which required careful painting to add details. They are now reading a cartoon story with cool pictures and an exciting story. In other activities, the class learned a folk dance called Jibbadee where everyone had a turn.
