Wednesday, November 4th

Today, in language arts, we read the story Stone Soup     Even though this is an old folk tale, but rich with story elements and vocabulary.

Here is the vocabulary that we are focusing on this week: trudged, village, peasants, barley, cellar, spare, hospitality, harvest, cupboard, broth, banquet, loft, splendid, fetch, entertained, charity, and deceive. 

After reading the story as a class, the kids broke off and reread the story as a readers' theater.
