Read Across America Week

 We kicked off the week with dress as your favorite book character! Check us out...creative folks!

Trees, trees, save the trees!

This week to kick off Read Across America and in honor of the Lorax we read Who Will Plant a Tree? by Jerry Pallotta. I told the students a little about Dr. Seuss and the Lorax, more details to come! But we learned a lot about who, what and how trees are planted! Be sure to add this book to your reading list, it is a must.

Friends = Love

Red, pink and purple hearts! No matter the color or size, hearts are a great way to let your friends know how much you care. Our lesson this week was about being a good friend. We read Love, Splat by Rob Scotton.  We also watched "Franklin's Valentine" a great little video about friendship. To end the class we made Valentine hearts for all our special area staff.

He saw his shadow?! Oh NOOO!!

This week in honor of Groundhog's Day we read Who Will See Their Shadows? by Jerry Pallotta. A great book full of animals, their habitats and weather! What will your shadow show? Rain, snow, sleet. etc
