📚❄️ Tuesday night was so much at Mark Twain Elementary! Our K-1 students had a blast at "Reading is So Much Fun" Title Reading Night. 🌟
👋 Special guest alert: Olaf paid a visit and shared the story "How to Catch a Snowman" with our little pirates. ⛄️
They built snowman traps, honed their sight words, and had a blast with CBC Words and Digraphs! Plus, they crafted snowman snacks while sipping on yummy hot chocolate. ☕❤️
