One of the areas I have been able to take over is the story time...after lunch, I will pick a couple of books from the library book box (books the children have checked out and brought back from home) to read to the whole group. The teacher also reads a book at the end of the day when the children are getting ready for bus/home. So by the time the books have to go back to the library, everyones book wil have been shared at circle. Some of the new fun books we have read together are:
Yum Yum What Fun (Mara Bergman)
Jump (Scott Fischer)
I ain't gonna paint no more (Karen Beaumont)
Hope Toad (Jane Yolen)
Hide and Snake (Keith Baker)
Princess Hyacinth (Florence Parry Heide)
I Like Myself (Karen Beaumont)
Sitting Duck (Jackie Urbanovi)
DinoHockey (Lisa Wheeler)
Otis (Loren Long)
It is fun for the kids to share "their" book pick with the class and we talk about why they picked it, what we all liked about it, who might want to pick it next time, etc.
