Kindergarten wrapped up “The Chocolate Touch” by rotating classrooms. They enjoyed learning the “Tootsie Roll” dance, making estimations about how many chocolate kisses were in a jar, and making predictions about whether certain candy bars would sink or float.
Mrs. Ray attended a book reading featuring Sullivan graduate Josh Goss at the Mattoon Public Library. Josh was reading his recently published children's book "Q is for ?." He wrote and illustrated the book. Mr. Goss, who writes under the pseudonym I.E. Guyer, is working with the not-for-profit publisher HABSAG (Help a Boy Save a Girl). Most of his books will be sent to organizations that will help get them into the hands of children who need a smile. Sullivan schools are very proud of this alumnus and the work he is doing! If interested in finding out more information about his work, visit his Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/ieGuyer/ .
