![]() Our wonderful Early Learning Advocate & District Literacy Resource Teacher Deanna Steptoe has written a grant and was recently awarded money from the Stollery Foundation for a summer literacy project! The project includes 16 books for each grade one student at BEST to take home over the summer. The students will select books that are of interest to them and they will be sent home with the children at the end of June, to be returned in September. There is also funding for a Bright Red Book Bus for the district. The bus will visit Bert Edwards one day a week throughout the summer. Our scheduled day at Bert Edwards will be every Wednesday from 10:00am-12:00 pm beginning the first week of July. The Bright Red Book Bus will be promoted through newsletters, brochures/posters, a book bus visit to the school, and a parent workshop. Plan on visiting the Bus with your children throughout the summer for great reading books!
