Lily lost another tooth, so she got the Tooth Bag again. It comes with a book and journal that need to returned, as well as a necklace she gets to keep. Tonight, we read the book from the Tooth Bag.
“I Lost My Tooth” by Hans Wilhelm
Lily’s Book Report:
I liked the book.
What was the most important event? He lost his tooth by eating. Then he swallowed it. At the end, he got his treats.
To fill another square on her Building Bridges with Books bingo sheet and fill another slice of pizza on her Book It! paper, we read an Eric Carle book.
“The Very Hungry Caterpillar” by Eric Carle
This is one of Lily’s favorite books. She has it pretty much memorized and can “read” is really well.
The is a lighting vocabulary word, so Lily was sure to point that the book starts with THE!

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).

“Snow Monsters Do Drink Hot Chocolate” by Marcia Thornton & Debbie Dreidemy.

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!
