As part of the National Reading week (April 21st – April 24th),
Ain Aar preschool and elementary schools began each day for a
week with 10 minutes of silent reading. Classroom doors were
decorated with illustrations based on book covers prepared
by the students, parents came to class to read stories, and
students themselves visited other classes and read to each
other. The highlight of the week was the arrival of two
Lebanese authors, Feyrouz Baalbaki and Samah Idriss who
read out their books.
In Ras Beirut, students came to school dressed up as
their favorite character in a book of their choosing.
They held a special parade where others guessed the
book character they represented while in Ras Beirut
preschool, students donated a book or more to be
sent to underprivileged children.
