First Grade-Haiku Unit and Readers Theater

"First grade students in Miss Evans' reading group celebrated the culmination of their Haiku unit. The students created a PowerPoint presentation describing Haiku and sharing their poetry with the accompanying pictures which served as their inspiration. What a treat to watch Readers Theater in first grade!" ~Mrs. Egert (Photos: K. Evans)

"The first graders gave Reader's Theater performances for Pre-K students, today. One reading group performed The Big Carrot and the other group performed The Tortoise and the Hare. In reader's theater, students rely on their voices for a successful performance. Reader's Theater is an entertaining and educationally powerful way to read and communicate meaning. What a fun way to practice word recognition, fluency, and comprehension!" ~ Mrs. Evans (Photos: K. Evans)
