Every day we are going to open with journal writing. There will be a prompt on the board in the morning and students will write about what comes to mind. This morning we did this one, "Write about ONE person you are thankful for and tell why". I write along with them and we have a couple of people share. On Friday we decorated the journals (composition notebooks) to make them our "own". My mom, Miss Mary, came in to help us. The class had a blast! They are truly talented! Get them to tell you about their journal.
After lunch we played a communication game, which is similar to telephone. They had 4 people per team and everyone had a different job. One of them was the "looker" and would look at the lego object below and explain to a teammate how it looks. That teammate would tell the "runner" and the "runner" would tell the "builder"!
We had a great team get it in about 25 minutes! All of them were trying their hardest! Several requested we try it again.
Happy Monday!
