This week we've been reading Horrible Harry in 2B by Suzy Kline. We finished it today. The children really seemed to enjoy it and were begging me to read each day. Harry does some pretty horrible things but he does one or two good things as well. Ask your child to tell you all about him. We have other Horrible Harry books in our classroom library and I was pleased to see some students check them out of the school library today. We are working on a little Harry writing project now so stay tuned.
We've also been reading Poppleton stories. I thought two of them were especially funny. I liked the one when he was buying a new bed and the grapefruit story. Poppleton has a funny problem when he eats grapefruit. Has your child ever tried grapefruit before? If not consider picking one up. A taste would certainly explain what happened to Poppleton's lips.
We had an official fire drill this week. The children executed it perfectly. We were so very quiet, which is important because we need to be able to hear the firemen in case they have special instruction for us.
On Monday, to kick off of our school reading fundraiser, the Wyman School will be having hat day. Remind your child to wear his favorite hat to school.
