Thursday Thrills

Sahithi read The Magic Pony. It's a BIG book, so we only listened to part of it, but we really enjoyed it.






We also had a mystery reader: Chris' aunt Mrs. Safranski. Chris was very surprised and excited!







In reading we learned about Real Readers. When reading words and thinking about what is happening, weaving our thoughts with the book, we become Real Readers! We learned in writing that we have resources to help us with our writing and Real Writers' use their tools to help them: word walls, mini-offices, etc.

We went to art in the afternoon. During ELL enrichment, 1st graders worked on phonics and academic vocabulary.

I will not be in school tomorrow and we will have a substitute teacher. Students will be making a glyph that they will analyze and write about on Monday. They will also read Time for Kids. In the afternoon they have P.E. and Music, followed by math practice on doubles subtraction. There will not be a blog post tomorrow.

Have a GREAT night and a GREAT weekend and don't forget to READ....READ....READ....READ....
