Many area schools observed Nevada Reading Week, Feb. 25-29, with special programs and activities. The week was meant to promote reading among young people. Due to a change in the Clark County School District?s testing schedule, some schools chose to postpone Nevada Reading Week celebrations until April and May so as not to conflict with testing. Left, first-grader Alondra Diaz, dressed in her Dora the Explorer pajamas, reads a book about Chip the Dog at Lake Elementary School, 2904 Meteoro St., Feb. 28. The first-graders were allowed to wear their pajamas to school that day. Top, first-grader Jovana Huato-Cruz reads "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" with her stuffed lion in MaryAnn Sanchez?s class. Bottom, first-grader Henry Garcia, right, looks up from reading a book about animals that live underwater. For more photos from Nevada Reading Week, see page 3AA.photos by marlene karas/view
