Read-A Thon Time!!!









A couple of weeks ago, we had the Read-a-Thon.  First, Ms. Hamilton came in to read us a story called Library Dragon.  We listened for words that have to do with fire.  Some of the words we found were:
scorching, hot, fired-up, flames, boiled, burning, infuriate
Then we were given Reader's Theater scripts and assigned parts.  Our class divided up into 4 groups.  Each group worked together to put on a performance for our class.  The group that had the most entertaining show was able to go and perform for Mrs. Mendicino's class. 
Another treat, was we had a visit from a published author.  She wrote a book based on a true story about a cat and a crow.  Here is the link where you can see the cat and crow in action: 
Overall, the day was full of reading and excitement.
