Seventh Age reading met with our Ninth Age buddies to explore our current story, "Who's in a Family" by Sheila Kelly and Shelley Rotner. We worked together to read and define our sight words and story vocabulary. We took turns partner reading the story. We also discussed our own families and drew comparisons between the families featured within the literature. There was an opportunity for us to illustrate our families (pets included) on thick drawing paper. After we gathered all of our family illustrations we had the makings of a family quilt! Our quilt is proudly displayed in the hallway. Way to go readers!
