Writer's Workshop
Realistic Fiction
~ During Writer's Workshop we have been working very hard on planning and writing realistic fiction. Here is our plan:
Each child will need to bring in an empty cereal box by next Wednesday. The students are creating their very own "Boxed Set" book series during writer's workshop. They are writing several realistic fiction books to create a series. They are loving it!
Math Workshop- Stem Stations
(for the next few weeks)
~ Now that we are wrapping up our place value unit we are starting STEM stations. Our next unit in math is graphing concepts. Graphing will be the focus of the mini lessons before work time.
~ During work time (STEM stations) the students will explore, ask questions, plan, create, problem solve, synergize, improve, reflect and share. While the students are working I will continue to conference with students about their work in the station and pull students over for small group math instruction- double digit addition with regrouping and graphing concepts.
