READ!     

Mission Impossible is a reading program open to all students in PK to Grade 3. Reading has been tagged the single best literacy activity for children to ensure achievement. This program is designed to immerse both readers and “not yet” readers with engaging texts to build skills and to promote a love for reading.

Other Info:
Students receive a March Madness style bracket (with books instead of teams). The bracket has 4 quadrants. Each week students come to school to pick up/exchange books in a quadrant. Students read and determine which book wins the ‘Best Book’ in the student’s opinion. Students keep favorites for their personal at-home library!
