1-Thomson first graders are participating in a very exciting "Global Read Aloud" this year!

"The Year of Billy Miller" by Kevin Henkes is a realistic fiction story about a boy who faces a year full of new adventures as he enters the second grade. We have been busy reading and discussing this book with each other and with other first grade classrooms at Fuller Meadow!
