This week we are reading the book If You Give A Pig A Pancake by Laura Numeroff.  Our skill for this week is fantasy and realism.  The students are sharing books from guided reading and independent reading and telling the class what makes these books real or fantasy.  Click on the book cover above to go to Laura Numeroff's website for lots of fun activities related to this book and others!
