We discussed Just One Flake 's book trailer, Liam, Pete's a Pizza , and more. I wrote the words in purple, and Travis wrote the words in black . Thank you, Travis ! Just One Flake' s book trailer fulfills my life goal of using the 2001: A Space Odyssey music for a completely silly purpose.

Dogo News, Wonderopolis, SI Kids

Great opportunities for kids to read online. Kids should also share that reading, share what they read that day. If teacher comes to confer then they confer about that article.
