For one special hour before winter break, BeAR Literacy Project volunteers filled classrooms, libraries, and cafeterias with holiday cheer and the magic of reading. Students were treated to a whirlwind of fun that celebrated the joy of books and included festive story times, reading games, winter-themed school supplies, holiday worksheets, and even cookies.
BeAR mentors handed out carefully chosen stories for students to enjoy over the break, encouraging them to keep the joy of reading alive even while school was out. As the hour wrapped up, students returned to class with backpacks full of books, supplies, and a few goodies – ready to share their favorite stories with family and friends.
