I introduced Gracyn to her spelling list today. The words on her list this week are sight words and words with the vowel blend -oo (look, book, took). Her challenge word this week is animal. In writing she wrote two sentences in her writing journal about what she did this weekend. Gracyn was not feeling well and she got to snuggle in bed all weekend watching movies! In reading we read the Raz Kids Level D book "Katie and Katie". We did a picture walk and a words walk prior to her reading to increase her comprehension. She read the book and only struggled on a few hard unknown words. She read the story with expression which made me so excited! We will reread the story tomorrow and she should read it with more fluency. We are making an American Girl Doll book. Today we researched and printed pictures of the dolls she will be writing about this week!
