Beach Blanket Friday!

The weather didn't cooperate, but we still went to the "beach!" After lunch, we had our ice cream in the hallway with our first and second grade friends. Then we read 2 chapters from the Tale of Despereux. Then we "hit" the beach and read the whole afternoon. You could have heard a pin drop in the room. I'll have pictures up later this weekend. Keep checking the blog!

This morning we went to a Country Fair! The 3rd/4th grade ELL students had done reports on their countries and we went to see their final work. We had our questions and we learned a lot. After the visit, we came back into the room and shared our new learning. I'll have those pictures up later this weekend too!



Antonio was our child of the day and he read the traditional tale: The Elves and the Shoemaker. Great job...and his video will ALSO be up later this weekend.

We did manage to get in some writing and what great poets they are becoming.

Have a GREAT three day weekend and don't forget to READ!

Happy Reading!
