<\/a>Oliver and Jonah sharing each other's books during Writer's Workshop.<\/p><\/div>\n
Today was an exciting day!\u00a0 We continued to talk about bravery (in terms of our performance coming up).\u00a0 We went and saw Jamari and Makayla perform a short skit with a theater group that has been coming for the past few weeks.\u00a0 It was wonderful because we had to practice being the audience instead of the performers.\u00a0 Our group did such an amazing job listening to the actors perform and participating when needed (Our job was to say “The sky is falling” when the director told us to).<\/p>\n
Yesterday and today we played a game called “Buzz” during Math Workshop to work on counting by 10’s and 5’s.\u00a0 One group stood in a circle and we counted to 100.\u00a0 Everytime a child got to “10”, “20”, “30” etc.\u00a0 they would be buzzed to sit down.\u00a0 The last person standing won the game.\u00a0 The other group I played with played the same game but counted to 300 by “5’s”.\u00a0 They really loved playing this game so it might be a game we revisit!<\/p>\n
Today during our Yoga time we learned a new pose-the mountain pose.\u00a0 The children for the second day in a row did an excellent job listening, breathing, and doing the poses that Mrs. Williams asked of us.\u00a0 You might ask why we are doing yoga in our class.\u00a0 The reason we are doing yoga each day after recess is to get our minds and bodies ready for Reader’s Workshop.\u00a0 It helps us focus and prepare for continued learning for the day.\u00a0 I am really excited about Mrs. Williams yoga each and every day.<\/p>\n
