Read Across America!



Mrs. Hubbard, a retired second grade teacher, came to visit our class for Read Across America. On this day we participated in Read for the Record, where students all across read the same book. Mrs. Hubbard read the book Corduroy to the children and gave them a piece of corduroy to remember their story.
