JELLY (AACI) Kids Read, Jerusalem

Dear English Speakers' teacher: 
We at Jelly followed with interest the recent BBC Big Read competition to 
compile a list of the 100 best-loved
books in Britain. This event generated so much enthusiasm for reading that we 
felt inspired to devise a smaller
scaled version here in Jerusalem. We are also planning a lively final event to 
bring together pupils, their
parents and teachers so they can share their reading experiences from the 
project.

Together with a team of English teachers, we have designed 
"Kids Read, Jerusalem" for you and your pupils and we would like to invite you 
to be a part of this exciting
new project. The project is intended for 3rd- 8th grade English 
speaking/advanced students and entries will be
accepted up to the end of May.

We would like every English teacher in Jerusalem to ask their pupils to discuss 
their favorite books. The
teacher will then draw up a list of the ten most popular books for that grade. 
The final list will be
publicized throughout Jerusalem and hopefully this will generate further 
interest and discussion.

The Kids Read, Jerusalem project will culminate in a final event to be held in 
early June. We are inviting you
to register your school to participate for the event with your pupils 
undertaking art/ written work based on
their favorite books.

During the event when the results of the voting are announced participating 
schools will display their work.
There will be dramatic presentations, prizes, a book swop and other exciting 
activities.

All participating schools will receive a gift for their school library.
