I know…2 blogs..1 day…
The world must be ending…NOT REALLY!
I have a few moments..
baby sleeping. 🙂
I haven’t blogged about my class in awhile.
SOO…
I AM SO PROUD OF THEM!
We have been working on writing..I mean REALLY working on writing!
I work at a TITLE 1 school, low parent support, high NEEDS!
ANYTHING I want mastered…is done in my class!
(Yes I give homework…but only practice…might get done/ might not)
My day includes EVERYTHING!
Just wanted to share my MORNING!
We have pullout interventions from 8:30-9:45
That means every 20 minutes ( yes every 20 minutes )
6 kids from my class are leaving
AND
6 kids are returning ( having MISSED 20 min of instruction)
SO…
We do Daily 5 (sort of) from 8:30-9:45
I move them ( timer ) because I want them to have practice at ALL stations!
While they are at stations…
I do Guided Reading / Writing Conferences / Assessments
( not every day…a “Mixture” of sorts)
I have:
1. Technology Station ( 6 laptops)
2. Writing…I used to use a daily prompt…now FREE WRITING
3. Reading..Independent or Partner ( stuffed animal or real person)
4. Word Work…Spelling always first..then games
9:45-10:00 RECESS (Daily duty either AM or PM recess)
We do have a “CORE CURRICULUM” which we do whole class after recess.
Anthology, Decodable, Grammar, Comprehension,Phonics,etc..etc..etc..
11:20-12:00 LUNCH
Wanted to share some writing..
(of course my “high” kiddos…
you can only see my “beginning writers
if you can READ..
“FIRSTGRADEASE” 🙂
