We had another great day at the Lab School. Our friends are adjusting to the routines and schedule of the day and transitioning well. Right now during Story Workshop, we are talking about what stories are. This week, we are encouraging the kids to use various materials to tell stories (fictional and real). Using materials helps the kids verbalize their story, which in turn will help them when they go to put their story down on paper. Yesterday, we story told with little plastic\u00a0bears. Today, friends were invited to use wild animal figurines and barnyard animal figurines.\u00a0It was so fun listening to everyone share!\u00a0Later this week, friends will be invited to use multiple materials\u00a0throughout the room. They will also be\u00a0encouraged\u00a0to write and draw pictures of their piece\u00a0after they have created their story. I have already seen such creativity and enthusiasm in story telling this year so I know this process will be beneficial in helping us develop as stronger writers.<\/p>\n

BreAnna and Cariah experiment with the light table.<\/p><\/div>\n

We also enjoyed exploring more of our classroom today. The light table was a big hit with many friends. It was neat to see BreAnna, one of our older students, showing some of our kindergartners how to use the light table. She even helped create a piece with several younger students. Such wonderful collaboration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
