FISH! Working on Reading…

So much learning goes on during reading time…from understanding the mana’o nui, to understanding new vocabulary, to making connections to self & other text as well, to connecting to our Hawaiian values and olelo noe’au, and even how characters evolve over time!  Phew…..here’s a look at our morning reading lesson using the picture book (my favorite) “A Wish to be a Christmas Tree” by Colleen Monroe.  Oops, forgot to mention with all the reading standards being addressed, we also incorporated pilina building and our morning meeting sharing in this lesson.  Great time to ask your keiki all about this lesson and how it made them feel!
