#WorldReadAloudDay

On Wednesday the 5th of February, Prescott Primary Northern joined a world wide movement! They participated in World Read Aloud Day! (WRAD)

While each class may have done WRAD their own way, each student at PPN got to enjoy an excellent story, read to them, by Prescott Primary Northern’s finest!

Students were also encouraged to read to each other or to themselves out-loud. At Recess and Lunch, they went for a walk to StoryLand, where they met Fabula who immersed them in a truly great book. The students got to hear it, feel it and enjoy the wonder a truly great story can provide.

For 11 years, World Read Aloud Day has called attention to the importance of sharing stories by challenging participants to grab a book, find an audience, and read aloud! The global effort is now celebrated in over 173 countries and counting! WRAD was designed to remind communities of the importance of literacy and how important the skill is when building a better world.

Thank you Prescott Primary Northern for taking the time to Read Out Loud. It was WRAD reading with you!

Don’t stop reading out loud just because the 5th of February is over! Find a book and read it with your friends, your family or simply out-loud to yourself.

Happy Reading!
