On Monday, Oct. 26th South Slope/BCSD participated in Drop Everything and Read (DEAR). Everyone was invited to wear their PJs and we all read in our classrooms and around the school after lunch. DEAR day is sponsored by the British Columbia Teacher Librarian’s Association (BCTLA) and we were one of many schools around the province who participated. It was also National School Library Day and we celebrated that, too. Many schools across the country have limited or no access to their school libraries and librarians due to COVID restrictions. I feel blessed at South Slope/BCSD to be part of a school community that has embraced the COVID protocols and that we are able to be able to provide access to the library for all our students.
Here are some memories of our fabulous day:
