Sixth-grade students in Team Ingenuity rocked out a flash mob with the song “I Gotta’ Keep Reading” set to the tune of “Tonight’s Gonna’ Be a Good Night” by the Black Eyed Peas.
Even Mason Intermediate’s administrative staff – Principal Greg Sears and Assistant Principals Nancy Kelly, BJ Smallwood and Jennifer Woods – got into the act. Performers donated books used in the act to a Cincinnati Public School.
“The kids were very excited to flash mob and donate much-needed books to less fortunate children, and our principals were so supportive throughout the event,” said teacher Holly Popplewell, who helped organize the event. “What a fun, positive lesson learned.”
The annual reading campaign, this year themed “The Great Reading Race,” kicked off at Mason Intermediate on Friday and runs through Feb. 3. The school has set a goal for students to read 500 books in this one-week period.
