Chapters Story Time
Each week throughout the summer this group came to hear another chapter from a book of their choosing--From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg. Brooke read to them and sometimes their mom would help!
Reading, Drawing, and Games
These three were dedicated to finishing this book so if they couldn't make a week, they'd read on their own to stay caught up! Their drawings are posted behind them. Afterwards we all played games together! They taught Brooke how to play the game Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza too!
