WINDSOR – State Representative Tami Zawistowski (R-61) celebrated Read Across America – an annual tradition promoting early childhood literacy– with students at Poquonock Elementary School.
The school also used the event teach students about Native American history and culture. Rep. Zawistowski read “The Great Ball Game, a Muskogee Story” by Joseph Bruchac and illustrated by Susan L. Roth to Ms. Monique Scott’s kindergarten class.
