Presents...

Today, I gave a package to my students. It was wrapped and after they opened it, they predicted that there would be books inside. What lurked in the box? Only time will tell, but today, they unwrapped....



A Mountain of Mittens by Lynn Plourde. We just completed an author study on her and I had to buy some books of hers that I didn't have.

The class noticed right away all of the repeating lines and were predicting throughout the book. I love the way my class talks about their thinking...I only hope that as they go on to third grade, those teachers appreciate the comments and conversation they have about books. It was a fabulous read and I highly encourage it to primary teachers!!!

What are the other books? Come back to find out...
