LAST Classroom Book Study

 This week our classroom started our LAST book study: Wonder
It is a fantastic book that reinforces the lesson of being kind and choosing to be kind. Something we talk about in our classroom often. 

We are really excited about listening to this book. Each day we are reading Wonder for about 30 minutes while doing different activities connecting to the stories theme of being kind during the read aloud.
Our goal is to finish this book by June 8. That is V day on our ABC Countdown. V for video, for a possible viewing of the movie Wonder that day.
