Reading Fun

Last week was filled with reading FUN!  We started our novel Tuck Everlasting and Friday finished with Winter Sports Readers.
The 4th graders were excellent listeners for the girls that came to read.  We heard a fable about a spider.  I always love fables.  Ask your 4th grader what they think the moral was.

Our reading time with Tuck was so enjoyable.  We have loved getting to know Winnie Foster and the Tuck Family.  Just when Winnie is thinking about running away, she gets kidnapped.  Winnie is amazed by the house where the Tuck Family lives.  It's nothing like the spotless and organized home where she lives.
We did a gallery walk with some of the important quotes from the beginning of the book.

We also worked on vocab words and two new reading techniques:  read, talk, write, and the 3R's.

Great things are happening and we are so glad to share a glimpse of it with you!
