We had fun this week! 

We enjoyed several guest readers this week.  Mrs. Lewy, retired music teacher, brought her guitar and we sang stories.  We also enjoyed stories by other Henry Ford Students.

       

Mr. David Mustonen -DPS Communications                              Susies’ Mom

We also really enjoyed seeing the play Alice in Wonderland at the Marqui Theatre in Northville. The play had music and songs. It was terrific!

 

This week we will continue to have guest readers visit us and we have an exciting assembly on Friday with one of our favorite presenters, Mr. Doug.

Please continue to remind your child to read everyday and talk to them about what they are reading. 

Comprehension Strategies to Practice at Home

Questions to ask before reading:

What is the title of the book? What does the cover tell you about the book? What do you think the book is about?

Questions to ask during reading:

• What do you think will happen next?
• What is the problem in the book?
• Why do you think the character did that?

Questions to ask after reading:

Describe the setting of the story. Describe how a character changed throughout the book. Which of the characters did you like best?  Why? What were some of the problems or situations the characters encountered?
