Anyway on to the rest of the post, we have been busy, busy, busy in my classroom getting started on our narratives and I was fortunate to spot this post from Megan at I Teach. What's your Superpower ( I love that blog title!) about her anchor chart. So I made one on the Smart board but didn't take a photo, then I put up a picture of a boy walking a dog, an eagle, a forest and the word "Woosh!" As a class we made a plan and then the kiddos had to write their own stories from the plan. Most of them enjoyed it and hopefully we will have the finished product next week. I have been without a TA for the last week and a half and will be again for the next week so it has been slow going in my classroom. I have to tell you trying to call out the maths mentals questions whilst putting eye drops in a wriggly child- not fun. This has to be done every hour! Oh well, adapt, improvise and overcome is our motto, so we soldier on. Hopefully I will get a chance to have time to get photos of our narratives and my measurement task cards I want to try out before putting them up on TpT.
Lastly tomorrow I will be announcing the winner of my 101 Follower Giveaway, so if you haven't entered.....go NOW!
Happy rest of the weekend to all!
Congratulations to your daughter, that is quite an accomplishment!
