I just love my students!
They were SO excited about creating Weather Windsocks. 

Here are a few pictures of them creating and enjoying their windsocks.

Spring Readers

We are so thrilled that the weather has (finally!) been improving and we've had a chance to go outside more. 

The children were happy to enjoy their "Read to Someone" time outside in our school's beautiful butterfly garden. 



LOVE these Growing Readers!! : )

Where Do Readers Read?


My students loved brainstorming a list of where readers read...


 and drawing their favorite places to dive into a good book. 





They are so smart noting that readers can read on an airplane, in bed, at a bookstore, in the reading corner ....
by the end of our discussion they discovered that readers can read ANYWHERE!

We then took our favorite Seuss books and read all around the school. In offices, empty classrooms, the cafeteria, library, hallway and even stairs. So fun!  :)










We also had fun discussing all of the the things that we love to read about... sharks, soccer, barbies, Dr. Seuss, owls, ... 


LOVE my Growing Readers!!!  : )
