Gifts
This week we read two stories by Peter H. Reynolds: Ish and The Dot. After reading we talked about what gifts the different characters in the stories had. Many students responded with the gift of art, creating, or trying their best. We then moved into a discussion about our own gifts and what gifts we bring to our community. We have a very wide variety of gifts in our room! Here are some of the students’ gifts:
J’Nayla: “the gift of communicating”
David: “the gift of basketball”
Kaitlyn: “the gift of friendship”
Paiton: “the gift of giving”
Mekhi: “the gift of reading”
The students made watercolors of their gifts. When we are finished everyone’s painting will be displayed in the classroom!
