First Weeks of School Part II

I'm a little late on posting Part II but here it is...

Here is a short recap of the learning and fun that is taking place in room 15.

We have been busy learning about writing workshop. We made our heart maps about things we love! This will help us when we are struggling with ideas for our writing. Here are two of our friends working on their heart map.




We have been introducing parts of Daily 5.  We have learned all about Read to Self. We know there are three ways to read, how to pick a "just right" book and how to pick a good spot to read. We LOVE getting in a comfy spot to read. We are working VERY hard to build our reading stamina. (Ask your first grader what stamina means.) So far, we are up to 10 1/2 minutes. Here are a few of our students reading from their book boxes in a comfy spot around the room.






We have enjoyed MakerSpace Fridays in the media center. Last week, we made pencil toppers and bookmarks out of Duck Tape. We had great 5th grade mentors from Ms. Verhagen's class to help us. This Friday we will be in the media center again for MakerSpace Friday. I wonder what Mrs. McKinzie has in store for us this time!






Until next time friends!! Enjoy your week!
