What an exciting week this will be! The children loved dressing up as a favorite book character and sharing their book with the class. It was great fun to see all the other kindergarten classes and well as the rest of the lower school at Town Meeting this morning dresses up in costumes, too. What a terrific variety of favorite books were represented. Ms. Dias-LaRoy was Charlotte the spider from Charlotte's Web, Mrs. Smay came as Raggedy Ann, and Mrs. Minke was Miss Bindergarten.
Tomorrow we will meet Mr. Frank Remkiewicz , who illustrated all the popular "Froggy" books. We have 15 books from this series in our classroom library.
Wednesday is "Drop Everything and Read" Day. Starting at 8:15 until 8:50, we will join the rest of the lower school outdoors to read, read, read. Students are invited to bring towels to sit on while they enjoy reading in the fresh air. Parents are encouraged to join us to listen to the children read.
Thursday our class will join Mrs. Cameron's second grade class for Buddy Reading. We will also be joined by a few local community authors who will share with us their love of books.
Friday is of course the "Oldie Goldie Book Sale". Our class will be shopping from 12:50 - 1:10 pm. One or two dollars will be plenty to spend and we invite parents to join us for this special event.
