Title I Cookies and Cocoa Night at Dillon Elementary
Dillon celebrated their Title I Cookies and Cocoa Night February 10. Families engaged in the If You Give… book series by Laura Numeroff. Students and their parents read books, listened to video stories, played games, made crafts, and practiced retelling. They also wrote a whole group story titled If You Give a Kid a Cookie. This story will be on display at the annual Language Arts Fair in March. Every Dillon student was able to choose a book to keep. And of course, everyone enjoyed cookies and warm cocoa!
