It was great to see the entire school participate ... a round of applause goes out.... to those who organized it... and got the kids so excited about reading... They probably will hear that song somewhere else even on the radio and think of reading instead... and sing along "This book is gonna be a good book...... to read"..

Without learning to read, it is hard to apply and understand any directions to advance learning.
So read as much as possible , it also stimulate the frontal cortex of the brain!
Creative arts , Howard Gardner Methods, each child have a unique way of learning .
This is using the multi disciplinary functions .
Read! Read ! Read!

I think this is absolutely wonderful! It is great to see the entire school having fun, lots of energy, and just think all about reading! I also loved the song, great idea taking a song of today and making it all about reading books! This video made me smile.
