Loves To Read

For school, Courtney was challenged to read above and beyond what is required. If she read 200 pages, she could earn a reading award that included a medal. Everytime we went to class, she could see the medal hanging on the wall. She LOVES to read and she surpassed the challenge by hundreds of pages above the 200. The school had a little assembly where they awarded the readers their medals. Check out Courtney in this video as she nears the stand (just as the video starts she is to the right of the teacher in the pink dress, she raises her hands in the cutest "ta-da" before getting her medal). She was so thrilled that her name was called and that she got to go up and receive an award.

  4. She is definitely a good reader! I was impressed with some words she was reading the other day...Sarah is still at beginning level, but she's made great progress. Sight word drills are the best!
