HHE to Send Book Fair Winners to Next Level

Holly Harshman Elementary held a local-level Book Fair and brought in judges to determine which students would move on to the next level of competition – regionals to be held soon at the DeQueen-Mena Educational Cooperative Extension.

Students created display boards and gave oral presentations on their chosen books, either fiction or non-fiction.

Both fourth and fifth grade students participated with several displaying great craftsmanship.

In fourth grade, fiction winners were: Isabel Vacca, presenting Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, and Kinley Hall presenting What the Moon Saw.

Fourth grade non-fiction winners were: Jorden Davis, presenting The Titanic, and Autumn Lockhart, presenting The Life Cycle of an Emperor Penguin.

In fifth grade, fiction winners were: Sophia Vacca, presenting A Wrinkle in Time, and Kiylee Hughes, presenting One for the Murphys.

Fifth grade non-fiction winners were: Maddox Medlin, presenting The Brandon Burlsworth Story, and Caroline Cannon and Brooklyn Hilderbrand presenting What was the Underground Railroad.

Fifth grade also had a technology category with Katrina Dixon being named the winner presenting Beholding Bee. Aiden Bailey also placed in the technology category with The Dragon’s Tooth.
