Seems like a neat idea... we're obsessed, in my class, with end papers since we've been doing the picture book study. However, I often don't say much more than some kind of noticing I have about the end papers. Seems like a great pre-reading strategy... do you do this regularly? Please let me know.

At my daughter's school, it was really only a handful. My 2nd grader was the only one in her class. My 5th grader was one of maybe four to take off. <BR/><BR/>I like the concept overall, and both of my girls have had a good time the last couple of years. <BR/><BR/>Congrats on the Mo compliment. I can only wait for that day, alas.MotherReaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11274509991340797264noreply@blogger.com
