🔎Mystery Solved!✨To help celebrate Read Across America Week, students enjoyed a fun round of Mystery Reader! 📚Each day, students listened to a different story and received a riddled clue about the mystery reader. As the week went on, they worked together to solve the clues and guess who might be behind the book. On the final day, students shared their predictions before the mystery reader was finally revealed! It was a week full of reading, logical thinking and great detective work from our young readers.
