Great Day!!
2A students had a great day today!! We started off the day with our morning meeting and our greeting and group activity each required some actions. What a great way to burn off a little extra energy in the morning:) We have been working really hard on the Read to Someone part of the Daily 5. Today students were FINALLY able to choose their own partners...hurray! The best part is that we built our stamina up to 23 minutes. UNBELIEVABLE!!! Keep up the good work 2A! Since we've been working so hard on Read to Someone it's been difficult to find time to see actually how long they are able to Read to Self. Last week they build their stamina up to 13 1/2 minutes. We've made it there again this week so now we're hoping to go even longer. One of my main struggles is that there is NEVER enough time. We will continue to work on Read to Self and Read to Someone. Next week we will add another part of the Daily 5: Work Work.
Just a friendly reminder...I realize that everyone is very busy but I would like all of my students to be reading at least 15 minutes each night. This is a great habit to get into at a young age. If your child really doesn't feel like reading an adult can read to them. There are many benefits to this as well!! Thanks for your help and your support!
