Last week, Ridgeview Elementary hosted author & illustrator, Marty Kelley! Students and staff alike enjoyed learning about his writing and illustration process. His message to the students was to stay motivated and find something you love doing in life, and to keep working at it! For weeks leading up to the visit, students had been preparing artwork and character displays, reading a variety of his books, and building their excitement. We all had such a fun experience! If you are interested in ordering a personalized copy of Marty Kelley's book(s), please return your child's order form to school by May 9th.

Did you know reading to facility dogs can help improve reading skills, increase reading motivation, and reduce reading anxiety? It can also help with reading accuracy, fluency and comprehension! Marshall loves a good book!
