Every lunch hour, all week, teachers read aloud to students.

Ms. Grupp kicked off the read-aloud sessions and Mr. Powers came out of retirement to read!
 
Ms. Towe shared the reading time with Mr. Powers during second lunch.

On Tuesday, Mr. Kunder introduced the students to fantasy fiction and J.R. terrified them with fantastic non-fiction!

For second lunch, Mother Goose (a.k.a. Ms. Svatos) read some "revolting rhymes" by Raold Dahl.

On Wednesday, Ms. Watson, Ms. Fitzpatrick and Mr. Ball teamed up to read from The Hours, complete with flowers!

During second lunch, a very pregnant Ms. Kirby-McIntosh shared some children's books with the students.

Ms. Laverty joined her and the two of them had the students very engaged!

 
Thursday was Harry Potter day and Harry (a.k.a. Mr. Pettigrew) read aloud from his favourite book,
Great Expectations by Charles Dickens.

Mr. Kunder returned to read a selection from Kenneth Oppel's Silverwing.

 
On Friday, Mr. Davey-Palias entertained the students by reading a selection from his favourite novel, A Prayer for Owen Meanie. He was followed by Mr. Kunder who read from The Skin of a Lion, which is set in Toronto.

   
Ms. Evans thought she was scheduled to read, but it was Ms. Evans, Cawthra's former Artistic Director, who read.

It was good to visit with former colleagues .....

and talk about books!

Teachers read from 11:45 to 12:15 and again from 1:00 to 1:30 daily in the library during UROC week.
