Mr. C's Corner

To keep the community of St. Patrick more informed i've created this blog with the help of some very supportive parents. Please become a follower and spread the word to your family and friends. If you have any announcements of your own for our school I would be more than happy to help communicate them.

Reading is Fun!!!


Students at St. Patrick School will tell anyone who is listening that READING is extra fun when Accelerated Reader provides points and rewards.  Students read books that interest them and take an online quiz to test their comprehension.  They are then awarded points based on the length and difficulty of the book as well as their performance on the quiz.  Students are required to earn a specific number of points each quarter depending on their grade level.  An apple with the student’s name appears in the hallway as goals are met, and prizes are awarded each quarter based on the reader with the highest points.  We all know reading is fun, but READING is extra fun with AR!!
