'Teeny, Tiny, Toady' was our read aloud today, we noticed the way the author and illustrator placed the words in the illustration to make the book more fun to read. Gracyn read a short story on the laptop and answered detail questions about what she read. We practiced the strategy of skipping unknown words and reading on to look for meaningful clues. We also did some word study with cvc and cvce words, compounds, and categories.
