Children in my class LOVE  their treasure boxes that are filled with small trinkets gathered each week at Story Treasure Time. We read a story and surprise the class with a special reminder related to the story. I start the year with the first five or six treasures then I rely on parent volunteers to send in Story Treasures or come in and read and distribute the treasures with their child. This is a fun way to bring children's literature to life!

Tuesdays  (11:35-11:50)

Come in and read or just send the treasures to school…
