On our first day back from vacation, we EXPRESSED ourselves using a variety of methods (writing, drawing, skits, and creative materials) about how we felt on our holiday.
Each student picked how they would express their emotions about their week away. We only had 15 minutes to create our drawing, skit or creation and the results were amazing!! Remember, there are many ways to express yourself! Which is your favorite?

This week we started "thinking about our thinking" using a fancy word called METACOGNITION!
To practice using metacognition, we used thinking stems to help us talk about what we were thinking related to our mentor text, TUESDAY by David Wiesner. Using our thinking stems, what can you say about this page from our book? Often as we are learning more about ourselves as learners we discover that some things are harder for us than other things. Some students find that reading or/and writing can be challenging for them because their brain is wired differently.
I recently read this article that had great information related to Dyslexia. Check it out and let me know what you think! |
