Beginner Level
Learners will embark on a wonderful journey though the world of children's literature. They may want to bring a reading buddy to class. Each class will feature a different book from a beloved author, such as Margaret Brown, Eric Carle, and Dr Seuss. I will perform a dramatic reading that engages young children and captures their imaginations. Learners will improve their vocabulary and reading comprehension through asking and answering questions. Learners will explore the world through books and conversation. While we are reading, learners may color the picture or create structures using play dough, blocks, or any materials they wish to use. *These books are planned, but I am open to following the interest of the learners.* Winter/Spring 2025 January 5: Bear Can't Sleep January 12: The Mitten January 19: Sneezy the Snowman January 26: How to Catch a Dragon February 2: Groundhug Day February 9: Tiny T Rex and the Perfect Valentine February 16: Love Monster February 23: Strictly No Elephants March 2: The King Cake Baby March 9: Bear Can't Wait March 16: Jamie O’Rourke and the Giant Potato March 23: Fletcher and the Springtime Blossoms March 30: Worm Weather April 6: Little Cloud April 13: Click Clack Moo April 20: The Runaway Bunny April 27: Fletcher and the Rainbow May 4: Wilford and Blue The Kite Calamity May 11: The Very Impatient Caterpillar May 18: Lu, the Little Ladybug That Was Afraid to Fly May 25: Compost Stew This is an ongoing class, and I hope to get to read with you!
