Small Group Reading Ms. Evans, Ms. Byson, and Mr. Keplar began pulling their small groups for reading the very first day of the semester to get our students back into the routine of reading every single day. | Literacy Games Preschool students were able to combine learning with play as they matched letters and played literacy-based games. | Writing Centers Students combined art with writing at one of their centers in Ms. Willard's class, but I think the real joy was sitting at the picnic table. |
