The Trenton Thunder mascot visited students at Ivy Hill Elementary School on Monday to promote literacy and perform a read-along of the well-known children’s poem “Casey at the Bat”
The Trenton Thunder mascot acted out scenes from the poem in an effort to make reading fun and interactive for students while also underscoring the importance of reading at a young age.
Students in the Ivy Hill Autism program will be taking a field trip to see the Trenton Thunder in May as part of the school’s Autism Awareness program. The month of April is Autism Awareness, and Newark Public Schools will be hosting various events in the coming weeks.
