Toys in a store? A Waitress? Gas Station? \u00a0Police? \u00a0Dentist?<\/p>\n I have to take a moment to brag about my students…This week we brainstormed 3 different “things” to go along with our unit on Transportation and I wanted to work in our sight words.<\/p>\n List 1\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n (Places to go)<\/p>\n zoo, farm, church,Dairy Queen,school, Chicago, Paris, etc.<\/p>\n List 2<\/span><\/p>\n (How to get there)<\/p>\n Bus, train, motorcycle, rocket, ambulance, hot air balloon, etc<\/p>\n List 3<\/span><\/p>\n (Who will you see?)<\/p>\n a teacher, friends, Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa<\/p>\n Choosing one item form each list, they were to write\u00a03\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/span> sentences (not 1, not 2, but 3 sentences).<\/p>\n Example:<\/p>\n “We can go to the farm. \u00a0We can go in a bus. \u00a0We can see friends.”<\/p>\n They did a great job and I posted their work in the hall. \u00a0This is a huge task for Kindergarteners. \u00a0The only 3 words that they haven’t had yet as weekly words were words on the list. \u00a0So, they had to find the word (retrieving information-a writing skill) and they had to use correct grammar. \u00a0(in\u00a0<\/strong>a bus,\u00a0on\u00a0<\/strong>a motorcycle)<\/p>\n I an very proud of them and we are not even through first semester!! \u00a0Look out! \u00a0We might have their Master’s thesis topic chosen by May. \u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n A special “THANK YOU” to Mrs. Sherding, Evelyn’s mom for making sure ($$) each child got popcorn today. \u00a0Thank you.<\/p>\n Have a wonderful weekend, still enjoying this gorgeous weather.<\/p>\n Mrs. Smith<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We’re picking up the pace with letters and words. \u00a0Keep on top of things by reviewing weekly letters and words and spelling the words.
