Poetry Teatime: Shared language
Hi Julie,
Today we had our first teatime in many months. It was a great success for so many reasons: my six-year-old daughter put the whole teatime together from baking the vanilla cake, to setting the table and making the tea to having my husband join us.
Yet, my favorite moment was when both kids recalled how to say no thank you to tea from our read aloud of Felicity an American Girl. I love that we have a shared language from our read alouds. We laughed and then enjoyed our tea and poetry!
Thank you for your inspiration.
