Making up for Lost Time...

First up, our field trip to Casa Manana to see Repunzul!  It was wonderful and funny!  The kids really enjoyed it and I think the parents did as well!  We compared different versions of the story that we knew from reading books and watching the movie.  We guessed how this play would compare, but I don't think anyone guessed how this play correctly!!
 
 
 
With the help of a parent, I finally have my reading strategies posters ready to hang up as we go over them!!  I am so excited to finally have it DONE!!
 

These are just a few that I have introduced so far.  I love them and how they teach students the different ways to figure out words when reading.  I know they like them too and having the animal clue really helps them to understand what they are doing when reading.
 
 I also found these strategies for writing.  I have the animals for them too, I just need to remember to bring them up to the school. 
 
I have been working really hard with my little friends on their writing.  I thought this was cute and tried it with my friends.  It has been working for the most part.  I think it is simple enough to help remind them what they need to be looking for when writing.

  
This is by far my favorite way to teach counting by 10's or 5's to 100.  I love that the kids can move around while learning and have fun- isn't that how it should be??
