Thursday!!!

Today is National High 5 Day!  We searched the room for all things five and sent off some results to Projects by Jen.

Ms. Hanley came in and we worked on self-portraits after some core-strengthening exercises...gotta get strong!

We worked, for an amazingly long time, on writing stories.  First I read a couple of beautiful books ("City Dog, Country Frog" and  "Whose Chick Are You?") and we discussed the various features of each story.  We started with a story map first and filled in our Characters, Setting, Problem and Solution.  Then we started on the actual stories.  I was VERY impressed with their ability.....amazing, really!

What a great video - from Clarkie's mugging to ending with Graham's sweet smile. I sure hope at the end of the year you can copy them all for us; I can't seem to download them!
