We love Down Under the Pier! The 1st-3rd grade students @apexescougars read Down Under the Pier, wrote Q’s for the author, @NellBeckerman, and in the last two weeks had the opportunity to see a virtual author visit to hear the answers to their questions! Thanks @NellBeckerman!

Our Reading Coach for the day activated Kindergarten and 1st grade students’ schema, asked higher order thinking questions, and revisited the text to dig deeper! Wonderful job, Ms. Bitner! @apexescougars @mrs_bloomer1
