Picking Books and Main Idea

 Last week we learned 3 ways to read a book!!  I wanted to show you a picture of our anchor chart that we have been using so that you could use this at home!!! 
 We also have been talking about how we can pick the right book to read.  This little anchor helps us remember to to PICK!!!!
 
This week we have been learning about Main Idea!! 

 Yesterday we "unpacked" the main idea out of this little bag.  Some firsties came and grabbed some things out of the bag then we got EEKK ( elbow, elbow, knee to knee to discuss what we thought the main idea of this bag might be......we had several good ideas, but most of the kids thought that the main idea of this bag was "keeping our teeth clean"!!!  When you are reading with your children see if they can tell you the main idea of the book they are reading!!!
