EXPERIENCING READING

10/18/2017

First we experienced Miss Kylie's new favorite book.  She seems to have a new favorite every week!  As we start to dive into non-fiction writing, we'll be writing some How To stories about things we are experts at doing.  For example, playing soccer, tying shoes, reading books, baking bread, and writing stories.  This book, however, uses beautiful illustration to take simple how to tasks to the next level.  For example, how would you see the wind?  How would you make a sandwich?  How would you be brave.  Julie Morstad gives us some pretty clever ideas.

But we decided to focus on how to see the wind!

Then we took some time to just curl up with a good book.  We're getting really good at reading independently in the classroom.  We made a list of what good readers do and then practiced them on our own and with our friends!
WHAT GOOD READERS DO...
point to the words        share books with friends        ask questions        persist
       love books        make pictures/movies in their minds       respect books        re-read books
find just right books        sound out hard words        use clues to figure out hard words
