Montgomery Catholic Kindergarten Family Treasures Project


Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School, St. Bede campus Kindergarten’s are working on a yearlong Family Treasures project.  Each month the students work on a special project with parents and family members. Teacher, Mrs. Debbie Redden, encouraged the families to have fun while creating a Treasure Book Binder and Book Nook to get the project started.   A Book Nook is a special spot at home designed for students to read with family members or read independently. The Treasure Binder will be filled weekly with books the students make in class.  By the end of Kindergarten, the children will have quite a library of books that they will treasure and read repeatedly and independently. Each student receives a key to the treasure binder to be kept with it. This is meant to remind them that the "key to reading success" is to practice reading every day, at home and at school!
