(*marks the books we read)
We are reading the Missouri Building Block Nominees for 2013 and voting on which book is our favorite.
Oh No, George! by Chris Haughton*
Cat Secrets by Jef Czekaj*
We made a picture of George from "Oh No, George". Children were given a picture of George, a recycling bin and paper to tear and glue. They had to decide whether George was good and kept the trash in the bin or if he was bad and spilled the trash all over.
