WRITER'S WORKSHOP~
As we explained previously, we are in the "Talking" phase of our Writer's Workshop. This is where we read a story (that could be true) and then relate a personal story of our own. Today's story was The Paperboy. We discussed the silver award that is on the cover of this book--the Caldecott Award--given to a book for its illustrations. Ask your child to share this story with you, including what time of day the story occured; who accompanied the paperboy on his route; and what the paperboy did when he finished delivering the papers. After the story, Mrs. Spolter shared about a member of her family who was a paperboy.
*We also discussed that the word, "paperboy" is a compound word.
We added a new book to our Book Nook--a Pre-K Picture Dictionary--which includes photos of classmates and pictures from our alphabet chart. The children are excited that they can read this dictionary!
We glued puzzle pieces on our letter "P"!
Today we read the book The Day the Crayons Quit! Be sure to ask your child why the orange and yellow crayon were mad at each other and not speaking to one another. Fortunately, the story has a happy ending!
Following our color story, we showed the children a mixing color activity that will be available for them to use at the Discovery Station during Free Choice time. Using colored water (primary colors), children can use droppers and mix the colored water into the tray to make new colors.
