WELCOME NOVEMBER
It is easy to start to feel ungrateful when we compare ourselves to others. Do you know how to break that terrible habit? Be grateful. It is that easy. When we focus on the people and blessings in our lives, our negative thinking suddenly becomes positive. Let's read some stories on gratitude. Much thanks must be given because we have a lot to be thankful for.
In addition to preferred seat with a reading buddy plushie, students will have the opportunity to either read outside in the garden or go to the creative crafts room.
Objective: Distinguish between fiction and nonfiction. Engage in genre-themed read-alouds and class discussions. Explore literary genres such as mystery, sci-fi, and fantasy. Participate in book talks and peer recommendations.
