Today we had Center Time and Morning Meeting (be sure to ask your child what language "good morning" was written in today - it was "habari za asubuhi"). We then read Nicholas' Star of the Week poster (great job Nicholas!!). By the time we finished all that, we had to head to the Media Center for our time there with Mrs. Hennen.
When we got back down to the classroom, we had a really fun Writer's Workshop. We sang a fun song about "stretching" words out and "snapping them back."We worked on "making our writing easy for readers" - making sure that the writing is clear and well-thought-out. The kids did some really, really nice writing - be sure to ask what they wrote about. We wrote so long that we didn't even have time to share our writing like we usually do, much less have Choice Time!
After writing, we packed up to go home!
