Kakariki literacy circle

In kakariki literacy group we have just started reading a story called 'Because of Winn Dixie'

We are going to be trying out a new type of reading (literacy circle by Sheena Cameron) to really engage, explore and understand the books we read.

Today we had to bring a picture of our own dog and some personal memories of our dog to share with the group. This was a way of us showing our personal connections to the story. It was really nice to talk to each others about our dogs and our wonderful and some funny memories of them.
