I Love My Hair!

We are really rolling now--here is a think aloud demonstration from Lekeya Shearrill, using the book I Love My Hair. Lekeya does a great job of speaking slowly and clearly, introducing, and closing her demonstration.

"Angry" Think Aloud

Here is a creative think aloud, produced by Heather Cassidy, related to the picture book When Sophie Gets Angry--Really, Really Angry...

Thanks for sharing, Heather!
