Happy Friday!!! Tall tales... and MORE!

Hi All,


   Just a quick note, in Literacy we have been learning about Tall tales... A tall tale is an exaggerated story.... Ask your child to explain a tall tale to you.... We used the example of a whopper and a hamburger!!!


We said that a hamburger doesn't have much stuff in it... It's a plain beef and a bun...


A whopper has more things in it... Beef, Lettuce, mayo, ketchup, tomatoes, pickles, beef....

A hamburger is like a regular fiction story.... Beginning, Middle, End

But, a whopper... is an exaggerated hamburger with all the "stuff" inside...



A reminder.... please make sure your child is returning their pink homework form on Fridays...
And your child is reading at least 20 minutes each night!!


Have a great weekend!
Miss I :)
