Busy Thursday

Today was a busy day!

Here are three things we did!

In Guided Reading we worked on a Nonfiction features search.  We used books about landmarks in the United States to search for things like bold print, glossary and index.  We recorded what we found on index cards.  We will use what we learned to do research in the coming weeks.

We read Amazing Magnets with a partner in Literacy.  It is a nonfiction book about making magnet puppets and stage in order to perform a play.  

In Library we read another Star of the North Book.  See if your child can tell you about the book.  It is a true story!

Oh - and we are reading a new book after recess.  This is one of my favorites!  Ask your child about it and what has happened so far.  This would be a wonderful family read aloud!
