It is so much fun to put books in the hands of our kinders. Today we had the students examine non-fiction texts to see if they could determine what the book was about, and what they could learn from reading it. One student was excited to show the class how Earth rotates around the sun. Another explained that leaves can be all sorts of different colors, even purple!
After recess everyone pulled out their writing folders and picked one book to publish. Then they shared their book with a partner, who made suggestions for how to improve the book before it was published. One student corrected the spelling of his partner's book, while another asked questions to gather more detail. Everyone is excited to publish their books on Monday.
