This week our story is The Smallest Gift of Christmas by Peter H. Reynolds. Disappointed when a gift he wished for all year seems quite puny on
Christmas morning, young Roland wishes for bigger and bigger gifts
before learning a valuable lesson about being careful what you wish for.
Our Every Child Ready to Read is Print Awareness. The book we are reading this week inspires children to get ready to read.
We will sing silly songs including some fun Christmas favourites. We will be creating a fun craft for the children to take home.
We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday.

What Do Animals Do In Fall? The Let's Look at Fall series serves beginning readers, offering texts
consisting of 75 to 100 words. The eight-book series focusing on autumn
has kids look at different aspects of the season. What Do Animals Do in
Fall? looks at hibernating and migrating, as well as animal survival
techniques. The short sentences and appealing color photographs, many
featuring children of the intended reading age, will attract the
designated audience. The back matter is short, perhaps listing only one
title or website, but there are suggestions for parents and teachers
about ways to use the books. Solid reading for a brisk fall
day.--Cooper, Ilene Copyright 2010 Booklist.
Our Every Child Ready To Read theme is Print Motivation. Every book you read to your child helps to develop the desire to learn how to print, and to recognize letters.
Come join us for silly songs and crafts.
