StoryWalk® in Downtown Florence (October 1-15, 2020)
Our education elves have something up their sleeves!
Starting on October 1, we're hosting a StoryWalk in downtown Florence! Find more information on the StoryWalk Facebook event page (and please share it on your Facebook page!).
Families will be able to scoop up a map, pop on their masks, and cruise around Florence to 20 different businesses to read A Big Mooncake for Little Star by local author/illustrator Grace Lin. Exercise, great literature, social distancing fun, AND waving at local business owners through their windows!
I hope you'll join us. Maps are available outside The Community Classroom and outside High Five Books. There will be a Raffle Chart on the back of the map for kids to fill out, and those who check off every business on the chart can enter into a raffle for a bookplate signed by Caldecott and Newberry award-winning author Grace Lin! You can access the Raffle Map here as well.
The author will also be hosting a live virtual bedtime read aloud of the book on the Tailored Learning Supports (For Families) Facebook page on October 15th at 6 pm EST, and there will be a raffle for 15 signed bookplates. Register for the read aloud here.
We'll also have coordinating activities and discussion questions for families outside The Community Classroom (29 N. Maple St).
What a fun way to celebrate The Mid-Autumn Festival, get out and support local business owners in a safe and socially-distanced way, and embrace the arrival of fall.
The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library. Storywalk® is a registered service mark owned by Ms. Ferguson.
