Mark your calendar for this great opportunity for your student to get “new to them” books to read over the holiday break and look for the note that will be coming home with permission slip attached!!
December 1st, Westside Elementary will have a Book Swap. Students will be swapping books from home that they own but no longer want or need. Each student is allowed to bring in up to 5 books for trading. We ask that these books be in good condition.
Book intake will be during the two weeks of November 7-18 (Before Thanksgiving Break). Student name, teacher name, and the number of hardback and paperback books turned in will be marked down for each student. We will then organize the books and display them by reading/interest level. On December 1st, participating students will be allowed to come in and shop from the selection. Any student who is absent on Dec. 1st will still be able to come in on December 2nd to participate.
*Participation is voluntary…not required.
Please make sure that the books your child brings are books that they truly can part with as they will not get them back. This is something Westside Elementary hasn’t been able to do in a few years, but we are hoping the kids enjoy getting “new to them” books to read over the holiday break.
Thanks!
Ms. Kim
