Tuesday's read aloud.
Tuesday we welcomed a Guest Reader!
Mrs. Holden (Bank's mom) volunteered to read to the children the book she wrote and published!
This book fit very nicely into our new K for ME unit Our Earth
as it highlights what lobsterman do to daily protect our waters.
We loved hearing her read this wonderful story
and she happily answered the questions the children had, thank you Laisee! ♥️
Thank you to the Holden's for generously donating two hard cover copies
of this beautiful story to keep in our classroom library! 💕 🦞
A beautiful page from the book that inspired a search.
She brought the fun search for the children to try that was based on the above page!
What a nice surprise for our morning! They enjoyed the story and completing the search.
