no name presentation
I really likes the no name story. I wish the group had more time to present the material. I thought the fortune cookie ideal was very unique and creative. The cartoon character was terrific. If you were explaining this story in an actually classroom it is an excellent ideal to grab children's attention. I am not sure what the cartoon was but I think it was a character maybe from Hello Kitty Friends. humm not sure.. The story was a story that several children from different diverse families could relate to. It had a positive ending for the main boy in the story.

presentations on mon
I enjoyed all the presentations on Mon night. I found unique features in all of the presentations. I really enjoyed the Anna Frank activity. I believe the class got a clear picture of the space the people were confined in for such a long period of time. I also thought the acting was very powerful and emotional as we see the view of the child being frightened and torn away from her loved ones.

read alouds
I think the read alouds are wonderful. When a teacher is excited to read a book the students are often excited too. I think the ideal of getting the students to relax and the teacher reads helps the struggling readers. I do not read my son bed time stories ( because this guy would only not go to sleep) I read to him in the afternoon. The baby loves it! We go outside with a snack and sit on the grass. He is only 12 months old. He sits there and listens to the story. He smiles at funny parts I am reading. He sometimes touches the book and points to the words on the page. I am sure all children love to be read to. I think an important key to remember is making the area comfy and sounding interesting as you read.
