What a chilly day. As a result of the cold weather the kids stayed in at recess.
This morning I worked with my guided reading group on a story that was organized using a journal format. We discussed why this is type of story was written and when people may write a journal.
This week our schedule will be a little wonky (this is what Ciara says) due to Christmas concert practices and rehearsals.
We had gym this morning at 9:50-10:20. We did some yoga in music room as the gym is being used for the concerts. Caitlynn says we also did some other kinds of exercises.
During Writer's Workshop we once again talked about climbing stories and what is required to write a successful climbing story. Please ask your child about this.
I met with my Words Their Way group and we talked about words that say the long A sound differently. For example some words have ay, some words have constant vowel and then a silent e and some have ai.
After lunch we had Drop everything and read (DEAR - which is a time for silent reading which is part of our daily schedule. Thank you Jaelyn for reminding me to write that down) and then we started making a time book. This activity not only talks about telling and writing time but it also tied in procedural writing as the students had to write about their day starting with the time they wake up.
We got to watch the PM kindergartens perform and then we continued working on our inquiry projects.
Book orders due tomorrow.
