Writing Wednesday

Narrative Writing-

We have been writing personal narratives in Writer's Workshop! (Stories about us)

Today the students chose a story from their writing folder that needed improvements. They added punctuation, capitalization, time cue words, important information, or details where needed. Here are some of our stories!

"First me and my mom went to the MOSH. I learned history. I learned history about a humans body. I had a good time." -Brady

"First I go to play with my pet. I throw a ball. He threw the ball I had a fun day today. I went in to have more fun! I danced with my brother. My mom told me and my brother we dance good and I was happy too!"
- Donavin

Terrific Tuesday

Today was picture day at ELA! Everyone smiled a great big smile for the camera!!! We went to PE today with Coach K and got some good exercise! The manteria has been a noisy place lately so we have not earned another green since we last saw our "pirate manatee" friend! Oh and by the way...we named him "Captain"! Fitting huh??? Maybe we can try harder tomorrow and Captain will swim our way soon! We wrote some excellent stories in Writer's Workshop and visited the computer lab this morning! By the end of the week we will try to post some of our narratve writing to share with you!

Lauren and Makenzie made -it family books.

Emily did a math assignment on Destination Success.

Today we had a great day at school. We really enjoyed learning in our literacy centers. Literacy centers are used to "practice" a skill or topic that has already been taught in a previous lesson. We get to work with a partner! Some of our favorites are listening, library, computers, and art! School is so much fun!

Christopher and Cynthia listened to a book and wrote about their favorite part.

Caleb and George made and completed patterns.

Khalil and Aryana visited the science books in the classroom library.

Yesterday in the "manateria" we had excellent behavior and were allowed to choose a manatee trophy to spend the day in our classroom! The poor injured manatee that we chose, unfortunately had lost an eye. We assume he was hurt in a boating accident. We loved him so much that we made an eye patch for his injury. Now he is famous in the "manteria" and everybody wants to spend a day with our new "pirate" friend!!!!
