Raising Readers at RSU 18: The Scarecrow
Join Ms. Gastia, of Williams Elementary School, as she shares the precious autumn story, The Scarecrow by Beth Ferry!
As always, we are giving away a copy of the book to one lucky district student who participates in the extension activity! To be entered into the district drawing, follow the steps below:
2. Email communications@rsu18.org a photo of your child’s chosen extension activity! Submissions are due by Wednesday, October 29th!
Extension Activity – take your pick from one of the following options:
2. Write a friendly letter to Scarecrow offering encouragement, asking questions, or reflecting on the story!
3. Using natural materials (twigs, grass, leaves, yarn), build a small nest. Then test (gently) whether your nest can support a small weight (e.g. a bean). Send a photo of your creation to communications@rsu18.org!
Happy reading, RSU 18! #WeAreRSU18 #RaisingReadersAtRSU18
