Parents, thank you so much for attending this event during school hours. This class was amazing, in the ideas they came up with, their ability to work together, voice, volume and improvisation.
Truly, the growth has been amazing this year. Writing and reading have improved by leaps and bounds. What was unrecognizable in September are now stories with meat and funnies. Very cool. Simple texts in September have turned into chapter books and confidence and love of reading. It's wonderful.
What is most important is to keep up your routines during the summer. Expect your children to read daily. Please. From experience, kids who do not both read and write over the summer lose proficiency, that just takes more time to regain. Please???
I'm moving on to post some DQ shots.
The puppet shows were FANTASTIC! All of the stories were interesting and FUNNY -- great job everyone! Thank you for inviting us; Will's sisters and brother loved seeing your classroom and the shows.
