Library Update - January 4

Due to the two snow days before break, this update looks a lot like the other update, but I wanted to stay on target!  I hope everyone had a fun and relaxing two weeks off!

Kindergarten: Read Aloud: Sniffles, Sneezes, Hiccups, and Coughs by Peggy Raife Durant.  We discussed that it is a nonfiction book and we learned about our body.  Some classes made a comparison to the book Pigs Make Me Sneeze by Mo Willems.  That is a fiction book because pigs and elephants can't talk!

First Grade: Read Aloud: The Great Mitten Mystery by Steven Kellogg  We wrote about what our favorite snow activity was.  We illustrated our sentence and hid a mitten in the picture.

Second Grade: We are still working on our Nonfiction Lap Books.  We're getting closer to getting them completed!

Third Grade: Read Aloud: Sam and the Lucky Money by Karen Chinn  We worked in table groups to complete a summary of the book.

Fourth Grade: We began a library quest called Locked in the Library.

Fifth Grade: We looked at a websites about DHMO and discussed the validity of them.  Then we were introduced to the Pomegranate Phone!

Sixth Grade: We are continuing work on our AEA presentations.  Today was our last work day and our projects will be presented during the next class period.
