2015-2016 Mark Twain Nominees
Fourth grade students spent the first several weeks of the school year being introduced to the the 2015 Mark Twain Nominees. The 12 nominees were chosen by librarians and student selectors across the state of Missouri. Students in fourth through sixth grade are encouraged to read these nominees and then vote on their favorite--the winning book being awarded the Mark Twain Award in April. All fourth graders received a bookmark with a list of the Mark Twain Nominees on it to use while reading some of these good books!Old Bonhomme students only need to read at least four of the nominees by March 1 in order to vote on their favorite. Upon completing one of the nominees, students fill out a slip of paper that a parent must sign before turning it in to Mrs. Kelley (the form students must fill out is located on the Mark Twain Nominee book case). If a student reads all 12 of the nominees, his/her picture will be displayed on a poster that can be taken home at the end of the school year. This is a big deal and we want to celebrate this accomplishment!
