Time to Read

Written by Monkey Business Employees: Elina, Gabby & Vanessa

In reading we have a lot of things to do! You are never bored in reading with Miss Klipfel! We have book clubs, fall letters, read aloud, and one of our favorites, the Choice Board! 

In our book clubs we each have a group. As a group we got to vote on what book we wanted to read. One group is reading Sleepy Hollow, another is reading the Homework Machine, another group is reading the book Fantastic Mr. Fox and another is reading Freckle Juice.

With Fall Letters you write a letter to Miss Klipfel about what you are reading for your independent reading book so far. Elina's reading Wings of Fire the Lost Heir. So Elina would write about what is happening in her book and talk about the reading strategies she is using.

The choice board is one of our rotation spots or what you do when you finish what you are supposed to do in reading. When you finish one, you fill it in by the paint bucket. We love choice board there are a lot of fun things to do!  

We also do independent reading! We are reading great books like Wings of Fire The Lost Heir, Ways To Make Sunshine, and New Kid. Last but not least Flashlight Friday! You get to turn off all the lights, make a fort, do whatever you want to make it dark. Then you get a flashlight and read!

That's the fun we have in reading in Miss Klipfel's class!
