Read Across America Week/Barnes and Noble Book Fair
 
Sunday, February 28     The book fair begins at the Polaris Barnes and Noble store. Show the cashier your school voucher before completing your purchase, so the sale is counted for Glen Oak.
Monday, March 1           ”Read Across Glen Oak” Students will record their favorite book titles and stories on red and white strips of paper in an effort to connect all the hallways together.
Tuesday, March 2          Celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday with your favorite Dr. Seuss hat. Bring a book to school also as we will be participating in “Stop, Drop, and Read”. Students will stop, drop and read throughout the day when the “stop, drop, and read” announcement is made.
Wednesday, March 3      Come to Barnes and Noble this evening to shop the book fair (there’s a late start on Thursday morning), listen to Glen Oak teachers read stories in the children’s department and the 3rd graders will perform musical numbers from “Seussical the Musical”.
Thursday, March 4          If you missed the evening event, go to breakfast and visit the book fair before heading to school. There’s a late start today!
Friday, March 5               ”My Favorite Book Character” dress-up. Students come to school dressed (appropriately) as their favorite fiction or nonfiction book character.

 Mystery Readers will visit the library throughout the week to share their favorite picture books with students. Ask your student whom they meet during their library visit this week.

 
 
McDonalds – Wednesday, March 3rd
 
Take the night off this Wednesday, March 3rd!  After you pick up your children from school, or get them off the bus, while you are on your way to the Barnes & Noble book fair, either stop and have dinner or pick something up through the drive-thru.  McDonalds is donating to Glen Oak PTO 10% of all sales during the hours of 4:00-8:00 pm.  It is events like this that help us to fund events like Glen Oak Idol, COSI on Wheels, Moments with Mom, SuperGames, etc.  Tell your neighbors, family and friends, better yet meet them there and take them to the book fair!  

 

Tae Kwon Do
 
Are you or your children interested in Tae Kwon Do classes?  Polaris Tae Kwon Do is offering to Glen Oak families a week of classes for $15.  This fee will then be donated back to Glen Oak PTO.  The week for this offer is March 1-10.  Take one class or as many as you can fit.  Check your child’s backpack for this flyer.
