Dillon/Dye Elementary Title I Gallery
The Dillon and Dye Elementary Title I Programs hosted families at our annual Cookies and Cocoa Night. This year’s theme, The Acoustic Rooster, is a book about a barnyard jazz band. Families watched a video of the author, Kwame Alexander, reading the story. Then they voted for their favorite characters, played the headband guessing game, wrote similes, and made guitars. The highlight of the night was enjoying delicious cookies and warm cocoa while listening to the C-A Jazz Band! Every student left with a copy of The Acoustic Rooster, another book of their choice, and the smooth sounds of jazz in their minds.
