Welcome to Bradfield Elementary's One School, One Book
What is One School, One Book?
We are very excited to bring back our 7th annual One School, One Book this year, and we are extending this experience to all of the elementary schools in the district! Each elementary school in HPISD will implement a singular reading experience throughout the campus and community utilizing the One School, One Book national reading program. Every student, teacher, staff member, and parent will be reading the same book at the same time. How exciting!
EVERY Bradfield Bronco will be reading Mr. Popper's Penguins. Richard and Florence Atwater wrote this charming children's book about a poor house painter and his family who end up in possession of a male and female penguin from the south pole and eventually with 10 baby penguins in addition. The story tells the adventure and struggles of raising 12 penguins in the small town of Stillwater in the 1930s.
What do I have to do?
Every family will receive a copy of Mr. Popper's Penguins along with a reading schedule. Every night, parents are asked to read the scheduled chapter(s) to their children. Each day in school, children will be immersed in common vocabulary, daily trivia, and cross curricular thinking and activities surrounding the events and themes within the book.
