Today all the students in the classroom came home with a brand new Scholastic book for them to keep!  This summer, our classroom was lucky enough to receive donations to provide every student with a new month each month!  This month the book that the students received was “Duck on a Bike,” by David Shannon.  We read it together in class today and loved it!  Everyone seemed to especially enjoy the silly picture with all of the animals riding the bikes.  It took us a minute to find the mouse! 🙂  Please read and enjoy this story at home with your child.  Here are some activities you can do at home while reading the book:

*Have your child retell you the story in their own words.

*Haave your child tell you what their favorite part is and why.

*Talk about the -ck pattern at the end of words like duck.  Make a list of more -ck words (truck, sock, quack, wick).

Happy Reading!
