Morgan Elementary recently held their annual Title 1 BINGO for Books. Staff, students, and families filled the cafeteria to play BINGO and learn strategies to use while reading books at home.

BINGO for Books is one of Morgan’s yearly Title 1 family engagement events. The goal is to engage families and give them resources to use with their students. Reading Design Coach, Hannah Hill, kicked off the event by sharing a reading resource that could be used with books that students won that night.

Each student that won BINGO received a twenty-five dollar gift certificate to use in the Book Fair. Every student that attended the event also received a book from the Book Fair. Forty-six gift cards were given out Wednesday night and eighty-seven books were given on Thursday.

Rachel Jackson, Level 1 teacher and Family Engagement Ambassador, was excited to have the event in person after having it online the past two years.

Jackson said, “It really is a beautiful thing to see so many of our families join us for BINGO for Books. Everyone walks away a winner in one way or another because it is so fun! We love opening up our doors to families and inviting them in to spend time with their children and the teachers.”
