Grade 1 Booklist Recap

Look at the smile on this one! 

I stacked up some of the books we read this past year for grade 1, and Arden came over and immediately put her arms around the pile. 

It's not an exhaustive stack, and we didn't read every book in its entirety, but it gives a good idea of what we covered this year. Looking back, we had our ups and downs, but overall the year was a success. We read and loved many books together!

Here are some highlights of the list...

A Child's Garden of Verses

Aesop's Fables
