The train and Charlotte’s Web

Posted at 8:05 pm under Bucher

So, we had indoor recess today.  When I came back from my lunch break, I walked into some of the kiddos walking into the classroom hooked together like a train and singing a song they had learned while in Mrs. Grotjan’s room.  Then, as the other friends came in to the classroom from Mrs. Argus and Miss Estridge’s rooms they just joined in the fun of the train link.  There was no instruction from me.  The children just hooked on and had a BLAST singing this song and having fun together.  It was a fun and unifying moment for our class that I had no part except being part of the train and enjoying the fun.

We began reading Charlotte’s Web today, and I cannot even tell you how engaged the children were when I read chapter 1.  I am really excited to continue to read this book as well as have engaging conversations about the content.
