Happy Friday!! Just a reminder class pictures are on Monday.  I am sending home the money envelopes today.  Please send them back on Monday and don’t forget your smile!!

Let’s start with important dates:

*We will have class pictures on Monday May 1st.

*STAAR test days May 8 & 9.

Now on to today….

We had fun with our Book Tasting.  Book Tastings are a wonderful way to get kids engaged in reading and familiarizing them with a wide variety of genres.  As an extra bonus, they get to practice Read to Self and find good fit books.  At the end of the tasting, they all end up with a list of books that they can’t wait to read.  My hope is that it will spill over to their summer reading as well.  A teacher can hope right;) Ask your student about their favorite part!

 

 

 

We are having a Book Tasting tomorrow in class!  I am excited to see the kiddos compare and rate the different genres that we will be “tasting”.  Ask your student to see their menu!
