The kindness our students show daily to their peers is one we love to see! Our 6th grade students gifted the Kinder students a book to add to their Home Library to continue the love of reading! ❤️🫶🏼🦅 @Region1DISD @RubyGarzaDISD @LauraRubioGarza @DISD_Libraries @torresreads

Yesterday was Rock Collecting Day. We celebrated by reading "A Rock Can Be..." by Laura Purdie Salas and then made our very own rocks. Gooch Gators are so creative. @goochelementary @DISD_Libraries

Every great idea can start with a single dot! Gooch Gators celebrated International Dot Day by connecting literacy, art, and creativity in the library. From colorful creations to window art, students are reading, imagining, and making their mark! Thanks for sharing, @GoochLibrary! @DISDLibDirector @TransformDISD @NicoleWBixby @DrElenaSHill @Dallasacademics @dallasschools @goochelementary

Gators celebrated International Dot Day by reading "The Dot" by Peter H. Reynolds in art class and "Mix It Up" by Herve Tullet in the library. Students then made their very own dots as well as some window art. @goochelementary @DISD_Libraries

When a book is SO good, the character becomes part of the class! After reading We Don’t Eat Our Classmates, PK3 students welcomed their very own “Penelope.” What a fun way to bring storytelling to life for our youngest readers! @DISDLibDirector @NicoleWBixby @DrElenaSHill @TransformDISD @dallasschools @ElemMacon @Dallasacademics
