Author's Punch

Shelagh's 1st grade class have been working on making their own books.  This is one of Shelagh's favorite things to do - she has a huge box full of them at home as well.  Her teacher decided to have an Author's Punch where the children could read their book to the class and invite parents in to listen and have a little reception afterwards.  Joe and I both went and, despite her being VERY quiet, she was proud and excited to read her story and have us there.  I love this activity - anything to encourage her reading and writing on her own is wonderful.  Here's Shelagh in front of her class reading.
