On Lily’s Building Bridges with Books bingo sheet, one square is a chapter book. All of the chapter books I have from when I was younger are too advanced and lengthy for a kindergartener (think Baby-Sitters Club and Goosebumps).
Thankfully, one of the Scholastic dollar books was a simple chapter book!
“Snow Monsters Do Drink Hot Chocolate” by Marcia Thornton & Debbie Dreidemy.
Here is Lily’s ‘book report’…

Every week when Lily comes home with her new library book, she always brings home a book about Arthur. This week was no exception.
“Arthur’s First Sleepover” by Marc Brown
October also started the Pizza Hut Book It! Program. Lily set a goal of 10 books by the end of the month. We have read 3 already.
Her school has another reading incentive based on Bingo. She has 25 squares, each with a theme (non-fiction, fairytale, how to, etc.) or character (Arthur, Clifford). For each square, she has to do a little book report on if she liked the book and answering a question about it (favorite character, the setting, the main character’s feelings, etc.).
She already has a stack of books to read this weekend!

Navy wasn’t feeling well when I picked him up from the sitter. Decided to take him to the urgent care clinic, just in case.
Me @ 530p: Taking Navy to RediMed. Fever of 104. Jeanette gave him medicine and its still high
Me @ 734p: Ear infection.
David @ 820p: Quit giving him cooties : )
Me @ 822p: It’s the two girls at Jeanette’s!!
Navy was so ready to cuddle and sleep by the time we got home. He had a stressful and boring evening. Hope my sweet son starts to feel better soon!

Lily, my little entomologist, informed me that this is a monarch caterpillar eating milkweed. She studied and raised caterpillars in preschool this past spring.
When she “reads” The Very Hungry Caterpillar, she uses the word chrylalis!
Lily told me that she is going to be a bug scientist, but she also wants to dig up dinosaur bones.
Ambitious kid!
