Mother Tongue Reading Session

Today, we held our first mother tongue reading session! A mother tongue is a person’s first language. The purpose of this ongoing project is to celebrate the many languages spoken, at home, by our students.

To support this project, all of our dedicated moms came to class to read with their children. The children were bubbling with excitement as we waited for the moms to arrive and the session to begin. Once the session began, each child read a book written in their first language with their mom. They then completed a writing response activity together. 

A big THANK YOU to the moms for taking the time to participate in this project! The photos and writing responses will be posted on the hallway bulletin board after the December break.
