Easy Books We Make and Read
Click here to see all the books we made so far this year!

May 2 We read a book called
Chickens Aren't the Only Ones then
made an easy repetitive book called
Who Lays Eggs?
The word pattern is: A _____ lays eggs.



April 29 Mrs. Jones passed around her shell collection then
we made a book about some of the
SHELLS we'll see at the museum.
The word pattern is: This shell looks like a ______.

April 28 We talked about the things we can do to help our planet
then we made an easy book called
Earth Day.
The word pattern is: I can _____.
In our small group, each child reads each book out loud using
strategies
to figure out the words such as, getting your mouth ready, using picture clues,
looking for little words in big words, and remembering sight words.
At home, your child should read each book out loud to a grownup
then should add the title to our monthly Read-To-Me form.
Keep all the books we make in your "
Book Treasure Box"
so your child can practice reading anytime!

Our Reading Teacher is Mr. Twaddell!
We learn that letters make sounds and pictures give us clues.
We play with the letter sounds and learn how to rhyme words.
We learn how to s-t-r-e-t-c-h words to help us spell when we write.
