Were off to Second Grade. This group of girls have amazed me as to how fast they learn. In the beginning of the year we had a great group of girls that some could read simple books and some could read bits and pieces of an Amelia Bedelia book. And here we are, the girls have advanced so much that even the weakest of readers in the group can pick up any reading material and read most of it if not all of it.
Sometime in the mid year of our book club we started writing pen pal letters. I allowed the girls to write their own letters and I helped them spell words. I am so excited to be able to share their learning process with out pen pals. The girls LOVED writing their letters and boy, oh boy, did they LOVE receiving letters back!
I have held the last meeting of the school year and I assure you I have sent them home with all the writing materials and information to be able to keep writing to you during the summer.
We will be having some play dates and movie dates this summer for the girls and I have invited them all to come back in September for the Second Grade Girls Book Club!!!
