"Jack & the Beanstalk: A Giant of a Tale"
Puppet Show Spring 2019 To continue our annual Literacy Spirit Week @ Casey tradition, the Casey Library Media Center presented an "off, off, off Broadway" puppet show production of "Jack & the Beanstalk: A Giant of a Tale" adapted by Mr. Garcia and the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade Casey Crocodiles of the 2018-19 school year. Our Librarian, Mr. Garcia, enjoys producing 1 puppet show each year. The puppet show ran for 2 weeks for all PreK-3 - 5th grade classes and everyone LOVED it! Every student that attended received special "magic beans" advertising Literacy Spirit Week @ Casey and reminding them that anything can happen "Once Upon a Time...". Please enjoy the YouTube video! Remember: Never judge a book by it's cover! |
Accelerated Reader (AR)
Our Accelerated Reader Program will begin on September 16th after all participating students in 2nd - 5th grades have been trained. For more info about Accelerated Reader (AR) please click the link to visit their website.
