Finished up our work in the Nonfiction Book Clubs unit of study this week. The kids loved this work so much. We are moving into a Reader's Theater unit this upcoming week...lots of work on intonation, expression and fluency ahead. This is another unit of study that is so well loved by the kids. The folks at the Reading and Writing project in New York have been so helpful to me over the past 10 years. All of the great summer institutes, calendar days and curricular calendars have helped to guide me in the development of my own units. Thanks to all of the wonderful staff developers at the project for all that you do for teachers...and kids!
Below is example of one of the anchor charts that one group of my students created as a part of their inquiry on Frogs. I love being a teacher!
PEACE!
April brings with it many new and exciting learning activities in my classroom. Our class will study the work of Dr. Suess. Take a peek!
PEACE,
