We were busy today, but we have been every day. Getting back into a routine is always difficult but I think we finally have it down.
In Writers’ Workshop (language) we continued to work on the piece we started earlier in the week. We also took some time and peer-conferenced. This is something you can do at home with your young author. Ask to read his/her piece. Then ask questions about it. For example, if they say they were playing with a friend, you could ask the friend’s name, where they were playing, what they were playing, etc. This just helps them realize they could add more information to their piece to improve it. Our motto is, “When you think you’re done, you’ve only just begun!”
In science, all but one class finished the video. Then we wrote and shared facts that can be proven with video. They had to write at least five things. Sharing helped children remember things they had forgotten about.
Tomorrow is Yankee Doodle Day, so wear your red, white, and blue!
Have a great Thursday.
