Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing



We have been inferring up a storm! We just read this book and did a fantastic job inferring why certain animals shouldn't wear clothing. We couldn't stop laughing!

Dinner Talk: Ask your child why shouldn't a snake wear clothing? Or why shouldn't a porcupine? Or a possum? Or a giraffe? Or a chicken?

Have fun!

Here is the book online!

Never Take a Shark to the Dentist....





Weekend talk:

Read the book on youtube "Never Take a Shark to the Dentist" (the link is below), and talk about other things NEVER to do! We had a so much fun making them up in class over the past few days. We are working on inferences, and they have blown me away with their incredible inferring skills! Keep up the great work detectives!
