Word Wall and Writer's Workshop

The girls learned a new Word Wall game called Word Slap.  They partnered up with a friend and had to slap the word wall word as their teacher said it aloud.  Needless to say, there were many giggles during this activity.

 

We have very exciting news....almost all of the girls have published their first stories and we will be holding our first publishing party next week to celebrate their hard work. Our mini lesson today focused on what strategies the girls can use when they are struggling with spelling.  As the girls returned to their seats to continue editing their stories, we didn't hear one student say,"how do you spell ____?"

We had another Mystery Reader today!  The girls are loving this time in our schedule.
