Magic and Literature: 1st Graders Solve a Mystery in “Me Gusta Leer” Show

Our 1st-grade students presented the 2026 edition of the traditional “Me Gusta Leer” (I Like to Read) showcase, demonstrating their reading progress to their families and members of the school community.

This year’s show was titled “When Books Come to Life: A Journey Through Literary Classics.” The storyline spun a captivating mystery: Why had classic fairy tale characters suddenly disappeared from their original stories? The answer? Fewer and fewer people were reading their books! Through this engaging narrative, the event not only highlighted our students’ reading milestones but also inspired both the performers and the audience to keep reading and keep these timeless stories alive for generations to come.

At the end of the performances, each student signed their very own reading pledge as a personal commitment to continue discovering the joy of books.
