This morning I introduced something new: See, Think, Wonder, Write. Every Tuesday and Thursday morning we will look at a picture and (eventually) will write about what we see, notice and wonder. Today we talked about the first word "See" and answered the following questions: What Does it Look Like? What Do you Notice? Can you Describe It? What Do you Observe? This was our picture from today...tomorrow we will find out what it is! Any guesses? One suggestion was a lamp!
I read the book All Are Welcome and we discussed what we noticed about all of the different children on the cover of the book. After reading the book, students worked on creating a self portrait.
This afternoon after recess we had a class meeting and worked to develop our first class rule together:
Listen with your ears and your eyes.
