I let the student helper choose the number of minutes for the next day and 10 minutes was too much for my barometer boy...we only made it to 8 minutes. I need to have the class discussion on 'just-right-books'. (I hope to accomplish that Monday.<br /><br />I have read 'Humphrey' to my class in the past. Ralph S. Mouse is always good, also. I've decided to start out with Kenny and the Dragon this year. <br /><br />Have a great year.<br />❤<b>Pat </b><br /><b> <a href="http://atimetoshareandcreate.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"><br />A Time to Share & Create</a></b><br /><br />♬ <b>MY WEBSITE </b><br /><b> <a href="http://pbaker.lakesidecentral.k12.ne.us/home.html" rel="nofollow"><br />Fabulous 4th Grade</a></b>Pat's Paper Passionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15839409526831785542noreply@blogger.com
