2nd grade buddies

We met with our 2nd grade buddies and brought them our book selections.  The kids looked at the books the 2nd graders chose for themselves, the answers they gave to the questions we asked, and then carefully selected a book that they thought they would enjoy.  The kids put a lot of thought and effort into choosing a book that might stretch the 2nd graders into a new series, lead them into a new reading direction, or introduce them to a new author.  The 2nd graders were so excited to see our selections for them and were enthusiastic about reading these new books. Then the 2nd graders added reflections about this process onto their Seesaw online journals.

Now we're going to work on putting the same care and thought into choosing books for ourselves!
