Mrs. Howard Comes to Visit



From December tenth to December thirteenth Mrs. Howard visited room thirty-one to read through Little House in the Big Woods, one in the Little House on the Prairie sequels. Emma's mom donated and prepped the materials for the snowflakes we made, connecting the activity to the first chapter of the text. We than got a chance to taste real maple syrup and maple candy, just as the characters had done. On the last day of our chapter book read aloud, Mrs. Howard invited a duet of fiddlers to come in and play some period music for our class.

Please join me in thanking the Howard family for giving us such a great reading experience!
