We read this wonderful book by Richard Van Camp with gorgeous illustrations by George Littlechild. Our discussion after provided an opportunity to meaningfully reflect on our year of literacy in grade two. Every child wrote and drew about "The most beautiful thing I know about reading," and "The most beautiful thing I know about writing." Their reflections are all included in this slideshow. We had an amazing year together!
