Today, after Morning Work Time and Morning Meeting, we had a bit of a mixed-up day. We read a short book and watched a short video about how paper is made, and then the kids all took turns going to a center in the room where Kieran's mom volunteered to help (re)make paper. It was super fun, and the paper that we (re)made is beautiful.

During all of this, the rest of the kids were doing Writer's Workshop. Today they learned again about "Reader's Questions" - after writing, putting themselves in their reader's shoes and anticipating (and then answering in the writing) the questions that their readers might have. They all added some nice details that way.

After Writer's WS, we finished reading Invisible Stanley. Then we had math, in which the kids finished up the activity that we began yesterday (adding past ten on ten frames). When we finished with math, we headed outside for a short recess on the playground, and then it was back in for Catalyst class with Ms. Bechtel.

After all of that, it was time to pack up and head home.
