Good afternoon, Hawthorne!
Our Hawks are just as excited as I am about our Books -> Movie display! This display was inspired by the upcoming release of the Dog Man movie (Jan 31st, 2025) so we will be talking about these books for a couple months.
I love hearing them look at the board and say "I didn't know that was a book-- I want to read it!"
The interesting thing is that many movies come from novels, which are our least circulated genre here at Hawthorne. Kids today have a lower reading stamina due to the increase in instant media that they're able to access. I'm very excited to talk to them in the coming months about increasing their endurance for reading long-form stories such as these.
Choice plays a huge role in getting children excited about reading, with familiar characters only helping with that. That's why we LOVE libraries and allowing students access to thousands of books. We want them to make those choices that lead to a love of reading.
If your student comes home with a chapter book, I encourage you to help them get started! The first couple chapters can be the hardest, and family engagement can make a world of difference.
Happy Thanksgiving, and happy reading!
-Mrs. Moore
