Have a wonderful summer, @menchacamustang! Happy Reading! 😎
Kinder-2nd grade @menchacamustang students loved the detail, "mix of cartoon and real life," "cool looking" pictures, and "magical rainbow colors" of @dsantat's illustrations in #EndlesslyEverAfter. It's the winner of this year's #MenchacaCaldecott! 🌟📖🌟#MockCaldecott
Our @menchacamustang 3rd-5th graders loved reading about both "the past and the present together," learning about "how cameras evolved" and exploring "how far movies have come." They voted for Action! How Movies Began by @meghanauthor to win this year's #SibertSmackdown! 🎉📖🎉
In our first ever #SibertSmackdown, 3-5 gr. #MenchacaMustangs read Moving Forward by @bartography and illustrated by Steffi Walthall, Action! by @meghanauthor, and To the Front! by Claudia Friddell and @plaidcats. Which new nonfiction book will win our 2023 #MenchacaSibert award?
For this year’s #MenchacaCaldecott, K-2nd read 📚Blue by @nanaekua with art by @d1minter 📚Kick Push by @frankmorrison_ 📚Endlessly Ever After by @LaurelSnyder with art by @dsantat 📚The Year We Learned to Fly by @JackieWoodson with art by @rafaellopezart Who will win?!?
Our creative @menchacamustang students celebrated #NationalPoetryMonth with #SpinePoetry again!🤩 "Follow Those Zebras Dash! Crash! Splash! Help! I'm in Hot Lava!" "Best Friends Today and Today You Are Home" Of course, sometimes you have to just stop + read the book!📚❤️📚
The #ScholasticBookFair is coming! Join us May 15-19th! 🗓️ ¡Se acerca la feria del libro! ¡Acompáñennos del 15 al 19 de mayo! 🗓️ 📚Happy Reading!📚
Yesterday was Essential Areas Day at Menchaca Elementary and #NotABox Day in the library! We read Not A Box by @aportisa and students worked in teams to create something new! #libraryfun
Our students read All the Way to the Top by @AnnettePimentel and @nabihaiderali with their counselors during our #NoPlaceforHate Mustang Voices for Change Project. They way students have connected with @jkclegacy's story is amazing! "Do you have any more books about Jennifer?"
"When I say MUSTANG, you say VOICES!" "¡Tu eres poderoso!" "You can all be part of the change!" What an incredible assembly today to celebrate the culmination of the hard work our @menchacamustang students have put into their #NoPlaceForHate Mustang Voices for Change projects! 🐴
⚠️Warning!⚠️ When you read The #GumazingGumGirl by @RhodeMontijo to the entire @menchacamustang 2nd grade, you'll need 2 more sets of the series. When the books finally arrive, students will stare around 👀VERY suspiciously before hiding the next one they need😄 #MenchacaReads
Thank You to @vanggarrett1 for sharing KICKS 👟with us in a SHOE-pendous virtual story time today! Your book made our @menchacamustang's "insides smile" 😁! @HEB #HEBread3 #BeTheChange

To celebrate #MerMay and the end of the school year, #MenchacaCaldecott winner @RizzyFig led our @menchacamustang K-2 students in a fabulous art project! Students gave Oona beautiful colorful afros + listened to Oona by @kellydipucchio with art by Raissa Figueroa! #MenchacaReads
