Bookworm- May

Mckenna loves reading books! When her preschool teacher announced the caterpillar reading program, Mckenna was so excited.  Whenever Mckenna read a book, we had to write the name of the book on a circle. Each child turned in their circles with names of books that they read during about a 6 week period. Her teacher used these circles to make a caterpillar that went around the preschool.  Mckenna has always been excited about reading and reads for at least an hour every day. She likes it when I read to her, but she also "reads" to herself or to Brielle.  By the end of 6 weeks, Mckenna had read 251 books! She read the most out of everyone in the preschool. They had a pizza party where they gave out awards. Mckenna clutched onto her circles that whole day.  When we got home, Mckenna and I spent the afternoon taping her circles around her room. Her caterpillar went all the way around her bedroom, down the hall, and most of the way around the other bedroom. She was so proud :)
