2 more weeks to go!

It will be so nice to be back in the Library again! 
There are so many choices for this week (and next!)  If there are two things you would like me to do, I can plan ahead for next week! 
Kindergarten choices:
If you would like me to do the retelling assessment for you, please let me know.  I read the book "Owl Moon" and the children put the pictures in order.  I then ask them to tell me the story.  If you provide a class list, I then give them a number from 1-4 (4 being the highest) I have a rubric.  I also make comments, if necessary.
Wild Christmas Reindeer, Olive the Other Reindeer, or a non-fiction Reindeer book, as well as a Reindeer PowerPoint.  Any or all of  these!
Gingerbread People books.  I have a new one, The Gingerbread Girl goes Crackers--a sequel to the Gingerbread Girl.  Also Gingerbread Friends, the sequel to Gingerbread baby. OR The Library Gingerbread boy.
Holidays around the World:  I have a Unicef book with real pictures of children celebrating different holidays, such as, Divalli, Thanksgiving, Hannukah, St. Nickolas Day, St. Lucia Day,  Christmas (in Germany) and Epiphany (in Spain!) I also like to do a little book with this called "December is a time to celebrate."
by Jan Brett:
Christmas Trolls (Some naughty trolls learn the meaning of giving at Christmas)
Who's that knocking on Christmas Eve?  A book about a Norwegian girl who has trouble with Trolls on Christmas Eve.
PreK choices:
Gingerbread (same choices as above!)
Bear Stays up for Christmas
Naked Mole Rat gets dressed (for the clothes unit)

As you may be able to tell, I love reading stories at this time of year!!  I have a bunch more, but I have to stop, there is only so much time!!

I hope all of you are enjoying this time of year as well!
