This week has been really cold--so snow books seemed to fit perfectly.

First Grade listened to me read Jan Brett's Three Snow Bears.  Then we took the AR test together to practice test taking skills.  We finished by watching a video from Jan Brett's website.  I love the way she talks to the students about why and how she writes a book.  We didn't watch all of this but got to see the real polar bears, her trip to the Arctic Circle, and the beginning of her drawing a baby polar bear.




Kindergarten Students enjoyed listening to Snow by Uri Shulevitz, and then All You Need for a Snowman by Alice Schertle.  I told them I wanted them to be prepared if it ever snowed in Tyler.  We finished library by creating our own snowmen.
