Literacy in the classroom

Story time is one of my favorite activities of the day. Having all of my little friends sitting in front of me, waiting to see what new story we are about to read is priceless. I love asking them questions about the story, and listen to their very clever answers. Today we read  "The mitten" by Jan Brett  in Spanish is "El miton" and the children were laughing so hard imaging all the little creatures getting inside a mitten. We pretended to be the animals in the story by getting one by one under a white bed sheet that I placed on the floor. One of the kids was pretending to be the bear at the end of the story, so when he sneezed all of the kids ran out  in all directions from under the  bed sheet. It was so funny! Later I saw two of them retelling the story to each other. What a fun day!
