Continuing our story "Sam and Dave Dig a Hole"

In literacy, the students of Room 108 focused on Retelling the story Sam and Dave Dig a Hole before finding out the conclusion. They practiced making predictions of what they think might happen. When the story was over, the students worked in groups and completed a Reading Response Activity and answered the questions "How you would change the ending of the story?".

Ask your student to discuss the story at home and "Retell" the events to enhance oral Language Development.
