Featured Classroom Project: 4DiSanto and 4Wysocki

Book of the Month

Each month we will be reading a book as a school. The selected Book-of-the-Month is a picture book read aloud to the students in class and then the theme or message of the book is discussed.  Follow-up questions are used for discussion and writing prompts. Additionally, classrooms will engage in extension activities that are designed to deepen student understanding of the focus concept.

The table below contains book selections for the 2009-2010 school year. If you would like a copy of the book of the month for your home library please consider purchasing this book. A portion of all sales made thru the link below will benefit the school. This link is available below!
