Tuesday!

When I got to St. Andrew's on Tuesday, I took some more pictures for the end of the year project. When I was done, the bell rang, and I walked to Mrs. McLean's classroom. She told me that she wanted me to read with some of the kids today. Fiorella and Elisa were the first two students I had to read with. Mrs. McLean asked me to take them into the JK room and to show them the book. I had to ask them questions about what they thought the book was going to be about. Then I had to ask them to look through the book, and tell me what they saw, and what they found interesting. After that we read half the book together. Throughout the book I asked them a couple of questions to help them get a better understanding. When we were done reading, I made a T-chart to help identify the problems in the story and the solutions. When they we were finished I took them up to the computer lab, and I put all the stuff away.

After recess, I read with Antonio another similar book. I asked him various questions and we used strategies to help him read the difficult words. He really liked the book, and he was really proud that he read a level F book. I brought him back to class, and Mrs. McLean asked me to cut out some charts for her class. I didn't finish all of them but she told me I could finish them tomorrow.
