Read to Self

We've been working so hard on getting our routines down. One of the things we're practicing is our "Read to Self" time. First, we had a lesson on choosing "Good Fit Books" for our book boxes. We compared a good book to a shoe... it has to fit! And, it has to be for the right purpose. We can't wear our soccer shoes to a fancy dinner! :) This is the poster we made to remind ourselves how to choose a book:

Then we talked about what it should look and sound like during our quiet reading time. This is the poster we brainstormed:

Every day we read a little bit longer before we had to stop. We're up to 20 minutes of quiet reading time!
