Getting to Know My Kiddos


My first two weeks  month is over and we have had a wonderful time getting to know each other. (wow it has been weeks since I started this draft and have not visited since.)Yikes - I wish I had a funny quip to explain myself!. I have been extremely busy - as you all have - but I am glad to be back posting.

One of my class' favorite books this year is Press Here by Herve Tullet
This book is full of surprises. As you follow the instructions pressing, tapping, blowing, and clapping the yellow dot changes colors, multiplies, and grows.
We have read this book so often in my class it is getting worn.

As a compliment to this book I wrote two interactive books: Tickle  Monkey and Building Jack.
Both books require the reader to press, tickle, blow kisses, rub, stretch, clap, tilt, and shake the book.

How do you build a jack-o-lantern? By pinching, swiping, clapping, and shaking the book among others.

I hope you all are enjoying your year so far.

PS I still haven't thought of anything clever.
