A few weeks ago, we mailed our introductory letters to our BOOKPALS at Ontario Public School. Both classes were enjoying the same 'read-aloud' chapter book by Roddy Doyle, The Giggler Treatment. We wrote letters to discuss the book with another Grade One student.
The reading strategy, 'visualize' was focused on as we tried to imagine what the Gigglers look like. What a fun and engaging book! We often referred to the glossary to better understand some the terms used by the author. The Irish refer to some things differently than we do in Canada!
Welcome to my Grade One/Two Classroom! This blog is intended to be used by my students and parents of my students to find out more information about my program. I hope that you will frequently visit our classroom blog to check out links and to see what we have been up in our classroom.
