They were definitely able to describe the process.

Making movies for next years students is a great idea!Jaanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02027755562339582129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738534444392348639.post-39576459688349516732013-03-26T17:53:09.733-04:002013-03-26T17:53:09.733-04:00Fabulous lesson...and you broke down ways in which...Fabulous lesson...and you broke down ways in which to be specific. Kids have such a hard time with that one...and "details". I had fun picturing you, surrounded by the little ones, blowing bubbles.

I'm afraid that teachers think the play is out with the CCSS, but you have demonstrated it is not out.elsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348895330633879894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738534444392348639.post-77687488525113966482013-03-26T10:08:40.316-04:002013-03-26T10:08:40.316-04:00What a great idea for a 'how-to' lesson, a...What a great idea for a 'how-to' lesson, although I'm surprised they are old enough to be able to blow a bubble! I've been doing some Poetry Friday lessons with a first grade class, Melanie. I think the 'play' part has been working with both rhyming words & then interesting words they like the sound of. They look for words to bring to share, & then add them to their journals. When reading some poetry aloud, they look for the 'sounds' of poetic language. Slowly they're starting to have an idea for writing.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
