Reading! Reading! Reading!

2nd grade readers have been working very hard on their reading skills.  As part of our reading curriculum, readers read independently, with adults, and with partners.  Partner reading is an important part of a balanced reading program. Partners have been working on taking turns, helping each other to read tricky words (without telling), and discussing what they learned about characters.





We also read the book Those Darn Squirrels and students had to stop, think, and write what they knew about the characters; Old Man Fookwire and the Squirrels.

Look at all of our amazing thinking!
