Get Ready for Book Blast – New Books for Every Student!
Dear Families,
We're excited to share that our school is partnering with Books Are Fun and the Book Blast program to help put brand-new, age-appropriate books into the hands of every one of our students!
Here's why we love Book Blast:
Every student receives books they'll love and want to read
100% of all contributions go directly to books and classroom needs
The book list is thoughtfully curated and truly engaging
Keep an eye out for a message from me with more details soon.
Your student will also be bringing home a printed Treasure Map—this is their ticket to joining the fun, earning books, and unlocking some great prizes. It's simple, exciting, and encourages reading at home.
In the meantime, you can learn more about Books Are Fun and the Book Blast program: https://www.bb.booksarefun.com/testimonials.
We're looking forward to a great kickoff!

My name is Wendy Hooks and I am the Success Coach for Carver Elementary. My focus here at Carver is to promote a love for reading among the students. The month of February we have a big challenge for our students. The challenge is called "Pedaling Towards Reading Success." Students are being challenged to read as many books as they can on their levels with a score of 100 on the quizzes. The boy and girl with the most 100s will be the winners in each 3rd and 4th grade class. There will also be a Most Improved Student in each class. These students will be selected by Mrs.Smith and myself. Winners will be awarded a brand new bicycle and helmet. Wow - what a prize!!!!
We will also award one third grade class and one fourth grade class with a class party. In order to win the class prize, the class must have the most 100s in their grade level. The two classes that win will receive a class cookie decorating party, a small trophy and a bike pin for their medaillons.
Please make sure your child is reading each night for twenty to thirty minutes. This is so important!!!
If I can be of any assistance, please let me know. My email is whooks@waynecss.org
