I would like to tell you about a program, sponsored by the Muskegon Lumberjacks called the Reading Caravan. The Reading Caravan is a partnership program between the Lumberjacks and local classrooms to encourage students to set reading goals, which will be assessed using the Accelerated Reader program.  (Where students read books and take quizzes on the computer at school to answer comprehension questions on that book.)   On Thursday, October 4th, our class will be traveling down to the L.C. Walker Arena for a Faceoff Rally.  Due to space limitations, parent chaperones will not be able to join us. There will be an on-ice multimedia presentation, a hockey demonstration, and games on the ice.  Throughout the season, there will be other components of the program as it unfolds, such as having a Lumberjack visit the classroom to read, tracking Accelerated Reader points, and an invitation to the Education Day Game for those students who meet their goal.
