Thursday!

When I arrived at St. Andrew's on Thursday I finally finished all the booklets, but Mrs. Slomka asked if I could sort them out. When I was done that I grabbed all the things I would need for my last all star reading. Thursdays I read to Lauren, Pero, Haley, and Noah. Lauren and I read a book called Fraidy Cats, it was one of the most difficult books in her level, because it was really long. Lauren had three or four hard words to overcome, however she did a great job reading it. I was so proud to see her improve so much. When I first read with Lauren she wouldn't sound out the words, or use any of the strategies, but reading this book with her I found she used at least three of the reading strategies. When reading with Pero, he read the book Take Time To Relax perfectly. He made not one mistake, and this book was also a long book. Reading with Pero, I noticed how excited reading makes him. He loves reading all kinds of books, and he has improved in his reading so much. Unfortunately when it got time to get Haley, she wasn't there, so I couldn't read with her. Instead Mrs. Greer asked if I could photocopy some things for her, then laminate.

After last recess, I read with Noah. Noah has improved, but not greatly, which is disappointing. I find that Noah gets to overwhelmed when he reads long books, whereas when he reads shorter books, he can reads them perfectly. Overall I was really impressed by all of them, and I was so proud of their accomplishments.

This is the book I read with Lauren:
