Happy Friday!
We had a busy Friday! We wrote about coral reef animals and finished our coral reef drawings. We went to the library and Mr. Madnick read to us. We watched an amazing video on coral reefs and had our first Mystery Reader- Mrs. Thomason. She read an African tale, Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears. Have a great weekend!
