We had the BEST DAY today! Mrs. Smalls and I ordered "Reading Rocks" rhinestoned t-shirts and we decided to turn them into a cool theme! We hung a disco ball and some fiery "Guitar Hero" style banners, and even cranked up instrumental rock music to set the mood. Oooooh yeah! Then I printed up some red coupons and gave enough each student to the teachers. A little rock music on the morning announcements, a challenge to make 80% or better in AR today, and some "Reading Rocks" tattoos and lollipops...and then we were ready to go! We had "biker chick" rockin' hats, and kids started pouring in. When they made 80% or better on an AR quiz, they brought their coupon initialed by their teacher and exchanged it for a Rockin' tattoo or a lollipop. Positive Promotions had everything we needed with a "Reading Rocks" theme. We checked out over 300 books today, and 228 kids received a prize. I am so proud of our students AND our teachers for making this first-time effort so awesome!
