Today, after Work Time and Morning Meeting, we had a guest reader. Since it was Kieran's birthday, his mom came in to read two books (Dory Story and Henry Goes to Fitchberg). After we sang Happy Birthday to Kieran, we had reading class. We talked again about how we can use the "chunk and chew" strategy to help with tricky words.

We also had Writer's Workshop today. We are working on extending our pieces - trying to write like Cynthia Rylant, who, we 'discovered' today organizes her writing in chapters to make it make more sense.

After Writer's Workshop, we headed up to the computer lab, where we worked on literacy again, using www.starfall.com.

after all of that, we headed home.

Have a great weekend!
