Celebrating Books in the New Year

We are starting a new book series called "The King School." This week, we read about great places to read books like the library or the park. Students stretched out the sounds in words to read about fun places to enjoy books.
We read a poem called Camping and practiced rhyming words. We set up a fun camp in our room with a tent, sleeping bag, and flashlights. Students had a great time sharing books with their friends in our campsite. We practiced the give and take of conversation. Students practiced taking turns listening and speaking. We practiced asking questions to show interest in our partners books.
This month, we are reviewing the letter sounds /k/, /h/, and /b/. We love to sort picture cards using the first sounds that we hear in words. We are also practicing reading and writing the sight words and and with. 

Working together to sort pictures using the first sound. 


We pretended to camp while we read a poem about camping.
