At the end of winter break week, Sprayberry High School is once again sponsoring a Dr. Seuss Storytimes session Saturday at the Gritters Library (880 Shaw Park Road).
It’s part of the Read Across America program sponsored by the National Education Association, and the Sprayberry community has been taking part for 20 years. Here’s more about the program from the Cobb County Public Library System:
The high school students visit local elementary schools-this year adding our local library branch–and read their favorite children’s literature with the children. Families will then enjoy a special craft activity to do with the children that connects to the book they shared. The SHS students remember when they were read to on Read Across America Day when they were little, and they love passing that experience on!
Saturday’s events at Gritters are grade-specific for pre=schoolers through fifth graders according to the following schedule:
- 1:20-1:45 p.m.: Toddlers and Pre-K;
- 2-2:30 p.m.: Grades K-1;
- 2:45 p.m.-3:15 p.m.: Grades 2-3;
- 3:30-4 p.m.: Grades 4-5.
You’ll need to register by calling the Gritters Library at 770-528-2524.
