40 Book Challenge

This is just a quick post, but I am excited about how hard the kids are working on their 40 Book Challenge activities. They are doing an amazing job! I am seeing plays, posters, PowerPoints, video interviews, read alouds, and so much more! I am attaching a picture of some of our completed book posters. They are hanging in the hallway by the library. I will do my best to share some more of our finished projects throughout the year.

My Kids DO Love to Read!

This year we decided to try something new with AR...Ms. Likens and I took the plunge and we have already noticed the kids reading MORE! I am so excited to see my kids excited about books. They are having conversations about books, they are carrying books with them everywhere, and most of all they are reading AT HOME! I am really enjoying the 40 Book Challenge. I think the kids are too. If you aren't sure what it is, ask your child. They should be able to tell you all about it. I am attaching the 40 Book Challenge Activity sheet to this blog post. Upcoming posts will have some of our completed projects so you can see what we are working on in class!
