Books, Books, Books!





Since the first day of first grade, my students have known reading is muy importante!! They have to read everything they get their hands on; books, signs, notes, cereal boxes, anything! To honor said focus, this week we became Book Reviewers! As a class we discussed why we should review books. We came up with several reasons, but the most important was to help other first graders choose books they would probably like. My kiddos are just too smart :) The end result was fabulous! I hung them in our library so that students could read about books their peers reviwqa (all of them gave stellar reviews). Any way to motivate these little ones to read is extremely valuable! It's been a great week, but I'm looking forward to catch up on some house cleaning this weekend... not. However, I am excited for next week! We will be working on everything Earth Day! One of my favorite units, yay!
