First Grade Readers

What a delight to have a group of first grade readers share with me some of their new vocabulary.  These words are quite incredible when you consider these kiddos are 6 & 7 years old!!  We are so excited about our new Wonders Reading curriculum and how much progress our students are making. Here are the first graders rocking the vocabulary cards and definitions in my office:  splendid, special, relief, appearance, predicament, determined, and feature.  WOWZA!!
