Constitution Day Books

Constitution Day in Room 6

This past week we celebrated Constitution Day in Room 6.  I used many books that I think the
students were quite interested in reading.   I just wanted to share those with you.

I based our class constitution and our word study from this book.

The students were very interested in the people that were at the Constitutional Convention so I pulled out these two books and read portions of them.

The students also were very interested in the process of writing the Constitution.

The kids enjoyed this brief video song of the Preamble to the Constitution by Schoolhouse Rocks.

Room 6 Loves Books

      In Room 6 we read many books.  Often parents ask the names of the books that we are reading, because their student would like to find these titles at the library or they might want to purchase a special one for a birthday or holiday.

    The past month, Room 6 has read many Audrey Wood books.

Some of our favorites are:

I use these books to teach comprehension skills to the students, but the students just love hearing them.  

Other Audrey Wood books that the students would enjoy include:

Audrey and Don Wood have a website that is fantastic for kids.
