Elizabeth Upton helps kick off the first author visit for 2018-19!

Elizabeth Upton, helped us jumpstart the author reading series for the 2018-2019 school year by visiting our Kindergarten and 1st grade students. She read her sweet and great read aloud, Maxi the Little Taxi, and through this story, our students became better acquitted with the literary concepts of onomatopoeia and rhyming. After Elizabeth read her story, students were asked to help create an onomatopoetic song using certain phrases and words from the story, and were offered accompanying coloring pages from Elizabeth. The lovely visit ended with Elizabeth being kind enough to sign copies of her picture book for our students and teachers. Thank you Elizabeth Upton!
