Reading
Tuesday, September 29
Reading is Thinking! Reading is one of my favourite things to do, and is such an important, rich part of life. What are some of your favourite books or authors? Stay tuned for more information as we dive into 'First 20 Days of Reading' in our Language program this week! We've already begun practicing silent reading, describing how it looks, sounds and feels, plus we made a list describing why reading is important. We will soon think about what makes a book "just right," rather than too easy or too hard. I have also had the chance to start reading individually with students, and can't wait until I've had the chance to do so with everyone! |
Writing
Tuesday, September 29
We have begun diving into the 'First 20 Days of Writing' this week! We have mainly been telling stories from our lives, and we created a grid filled with ideas that we can use in our writing in the future. Ask your child which stories they've chosen to tell so far :) |
