Read for the Record

Science: The children made “bun buggies” or cars out of bread and vegetables and ate them with dip.

The children were read stories by Roosevelt students and had their “bun buggy” snacks during our journal time.

Read for the Record
This Thursday was the national Read for the Record day and celebrated the book The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. Schools across the country were encouraged to read this classic children’s story on October 8th in an attempt to break records in reading, service, and fun. ECEC participates in this event each year. This year, we had special readers visit us from Roosevelt University’s language and literacy group to read the story to the classrooms. Each classroom had the story read by students, much to the delight of the children! The Very Hungry Caterpillar is an excellent story for children of all ages, from infants through kindergarten. Check out the book at your local library and see how much of the book your child will be able to recall!
