Mrs. Taylor's class had a surprise guest reader! Mrs. Ditto stopped by to read the ending of Charlotte's Web. While reading this book, students learned about story elements and how characters interact and how their interactions change the story. They also learned how using sensory rich details makes a story more interesting! The class loved reading the book as a school! 🕷️🐷 #OHEistheplacetobe
