I am so glad she's back! Our read aloud was chapter one of an American Girl story, 'Grace". We read 'Katie Woo and the Big Lie' together, making comparisons/contrasts to Junie B. Jones. She read 'Goats' as her independent reading. Our word work focus was learning the glued sounds -ing-ang-ong-ung-ink-ank-onk-unk. We also practiced sight words.
