We also read Lily's Purple Plastic Purse, by Kevin Henkes, our featured author! We used this book as a learning experience from Lily. She is not very patient in class, gets her special purple purse taken away, and draws a mean picture of her teacher. I sure hope I taught them to treat me well! Just kidding....we discussed how we can always make tomorrow better. Lily's quote after her terrible day was, “Today was a difficult day. Tomorrow will be better." The kids brainstormed ways to make each day better and we made a window of stars.
We have also been spending a lot of time thinking about our hopes for first grade. The kids have spent several days talking about their dreams for the future and what we need to do in first grade to help them achieve them. We have a special presentation coming soon for you!!
See you soon:)
