Willow Hill Elementary School – Read-In Chain

February 6, 2023 @ 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm

Willow Hill Elementary School will be participating in the 33rd National African American Read-In. Since reading is a significant component of our celebration of Black History Month, Willow Hill will host a read-in with grades K-5.  Our librarian first selects books by African American authors and/or illustrators.  Students within grades 3-5 then choose one of those books to read aloud to a younger student in grades K-2.

Each younger class is paired with an older class. These classes are situated around the school to form a “human reading chain” from one end of the school to the other.  The older students read to their younger buddy for 15 minutes.
