We have been enjoying a picture book a day, along with our chapter book read aloud. The messages in these books and the discussions we’ve had because of them are rich and meaningful. Students are making connections between the books and influencing the atmosphere in our classroom. During these discussions, it’s been pointed out many times that our words and actions are powerful. Little acts of kindness have a ripple affect. Kindness is contagious. We have choices every day about our attitude, the words we say, and what we choose to do to make the best of it. Today, we talked about what it means to have s good reading attitude and how your attitude can influence your progress as s reader. After 30 minutes of reading, students wrote a jot for our “Jot Lot.” They jotted down how they feel about reading and why they feel that way. We have a lot of wonderful reading attitudes and just a few that I am on a mission to change!
