Inchy the Book Vending Machines are Coming to MECC!!
At Menchaca we love to share our passion for reading with students. In an effort to motivate our students to be successful readers, our Librarian Mrs. C. Lopez wrote a $10,000 Donors Choose grant to bring 2 Inchy the Book Vending Machines to MECC. We are excited to announce that Elon Musk’s Foundation fully funded the grant and we will be receiving them! Students will love having the opportunity to earn coins to buy their own books for meeting attendance goals, meeting reading goals such as letter and sound recognition, identifying sight words, or exhibiting positive behavior. Knowing that reading is an essential part of education and that in order to be successful in school you need to be able to read we wanted more ways to get books in the hands of our students. Holding a book, learning to read it from left to right, and escaping into the magic of a book can really open a world of learning for our students.
