Literacy Week

Hollywood Hills Elementary School loves Literacy Week! It is an opportunity to show our gratitude enthusiasm, and seriousness for reading. We participated in lots of special activities which included dress up days, having guest readers, designing and creating a bulletin board, and even READING! Our bulletin board theme was "United We Read" because as a class we encourage each other to read daily. We welcomed a special guest reader, Mrs. Walker. She brought cookies and read a book about two famous football players named Tiki and Ronde Barber. Lastly, we with reading buddies from Mrs. Gold's kindergarten class. That was so much fun! Who knew kindergartners were so little?! Overall, Literacy Week was a huge success. We look forward to celebrating literacy everyday.

Practice Makes Perfect!

This week, the third, fourth, and fifth graders are participating in the BSA which is a computer-based test designed to help them prepare for the upcoming FSA, or Florida Standards Assessment. They were given 75 minutes to answer questions about math and reading. As they say, practice makes perfect!
