"We're celebrating the Sir Purr's Pawsome Readers top performing elementary schools, Charlotte East Language Academy, Idlewild Elementary School, and Villa Heights Elementary School for a big day of fun and celebration in recognition of all the hard work and their commitment to becoming strong readers as we set the course for success for these young learners. They are transitioning from third grade to fourth grade and entering that crucial time where they're advancing from learning to read to reading to learn.
While today's core message is "Read 20" and making sure kids are reading at least 20 minutes a day to establish their strong reading habits. We're also doing what the Panthers call "Play 60", encouraging kids to get 60 minutes of daily physical activity. Those two work hand in hand! Studies will show that healthy, active kids focus better in the classroom, are more alert, and by virtue of that, are able to focus better when they're taking on tasks like learning to read."
