Well, not <em>all<\/em> the Wildcats. I was there to give special presentations for all the students who met their reading goals for the school year. First, I talked to the 2nd graders, who each read 60 books, and the 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, who each read 30 chapter books. I had a quick pizza party with all the students who read and voted for this year&#8217;s Texas Bluebonnet Award, their party had a DJ and everything! Then I finished the day presenting to Pre-K, Kinder, and 1st grade, many of whom reached their goal of 60 books!<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThanks to Mrs. Ruth Roman-Meza for inviting me and setting everything up. Great job! And thanks to Ms. Cox for my personal copy of the schools third writing publication&#8212;<em>Color Poetry<\/em> by 5C, 5D, &#038; 5E. It&#8217;s a collection of poems full of similes, metaphors, alliteration, and onomatopoeia. My many hats off to the many authors! And an extra special thanks to all the Winnetka Wildcats. I totally agree with your motto: Readers are Leaders!<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dallasisd.org\/winnetka\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/michaelanthonysteele.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/DSCN0619.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"DSCN0619\" width=\"500\" height=\"353\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/michaelanthonysteele.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/DSCN0619.jpg 500w, https:\/\/michaelanthonysteele.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/DSCN0619-300x211.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; I just spent the day with the Wildcats at Winnetka Elementary in Dallas, Texas!
