class read

February is the Maine Department of Education’s annual #readtome Challenge month and is an opportunity for DOE employees and other volunteers in our communities to contribute to a child’s literacy growth by reading aloud to one or more children for at least 15 minutes!

Melissa O'Neal-Low read to Jennie Umphrey Galletta’s Fourth-grade class at Manchester Elementary School!

She read The Crayon Man, the fabulous story about Mr. Edwin Binney, the inventor of Crayola Crayons!

Thanks, Melissa, for taking the time to come into our school!
