Reading Buddies!

Today, we had some special visitors join us!  Ms. Martin's 5th grade class made a special trip to the 1st floor to read to the kindergarteners!  We were so excited and made excellent choices while being read to.  While the 5th graders brought a book with them to share, some finished early.  This gave our class a chance to pick their favorite books from our library and have their buddies read it to them.  I was so impressed as I watched some of our friends retell the story as they pointed to each picture, notice sight words we have been practicing, or pointing out different letters in the books!  They also did a wonderful job of discussing what had just been read to them.  Here we are, hard at work, with our reading buddies!

Thank you Ms. Martin's class for reading to us!  We had so much fun with the "big kids!"
