PreK: Fortunately, by Remy Charlip and The 3 Bears and Goldilocks by Margaret Willey. Last week we read Goldilocks and the Three Bears by Paul Galdone. This week I read the same story, but with a few differences. They really enjoyed the book, Fortunately, and were so glad the little boy made it to the surprise birthday party!
Kindergarten: We continued to read books by Eric Carle, including The Very Quiet Cricket and Rooster's Off to See the World. We discussed how Carle had problems learning math as a young child and how he likes to include counting and numbers in his books as a result.
1st Grade: We read I Dare You NOT to Yawn by Helene Boudrea. This is on the current Texas 2x2 Reading List. So many of them DID yawn while I was reading this book!
2nd Grade: We read Mustache! by Mac Barnett. The students noticed so many details in the illustrations, such as the court jester juggling different items on each page.
3rd Grade: We read Sam and Dave Dig A Hole by Mac Barnett. The kids loved the story and couldn't believe Sam and Dave came SO close to finding diamonds...but then missed them. They also pointed out to me that the picture of the house on the front and last pages looked similar, but had small differences in them. We're also working on dictionary skills with third grade.
