One of our favorite parts of school is reading. I love reading. O loves to be read to. It is a perfect way to finish our days.
Before our year started I tried to compile a list of books (both chapter and picture) that I wanted to read with O. I had various reasons for all the books.
Here are a few of my reasons:
Some of them we have already read, but I wanted to read again and do some type of lesson with.
Some of the picture books, I want O to start reading to me
Some were outside our normal genre of books we read
Some won awards
Some are classics
Of the 56 books on my list, we have read 9 (they are in bold). (This isn't all we have read, just the ones that are on my list).
