"Reading Carnival"

• Wanted to work on reading goal
• Set up at Mt. Zion, a community where several of their students live
• Had a storyteller, puppet maker, carnival concessions, and music and dance for the children to participate in
  
  • The carnival concessions required children to follow directions to make a cornucopia, then measure and mix together snack mix to fill it
    
• Next year, they would like to teach reading strategies to parents for them to use when reading to their children while the children are busy participating in the carnival
