Butler Teachers in Action
Today, our students from Butler taught during many parts of the day! Miss Gitskin did a read aloud that introduced another author for our upcoming author study. She introduced the idea of word choice to the students and we noticed that sometimes authors repeat their words to add emphasis or create a rhythm. Chairo used some repeating phrases in his story and then he was able to share this with the class at the end of Story Workshop.
During math, each of the Butler students chose a read aloud connected to one of the math concepts we’ve worked on this year. The students worked in small groups with the Butler friends and listened to their book and then completed a problem connected to it in their math journals. The students were very engaged and loved hearing stories during math workshop!
