Mrs. Chesnut’s reading class continues to use Moby Max to build their reading skills. They have once again met the reading challenge set by Moby Max and were rewarded with another $55 gift card to Amazon. Students decided to use their reward to help others. Therefore, they purchased a K’nex building set to donate to the Catholic Charities Christmas.
