2nd Writing Lesson

I decided that for my 2nd writing lesson, I would get together with my buddy teacher- Nancy Hayashi, and do the writing assignment with her students.  It just wasn't working trying to do it in my kindergarten class, and I really only had a one to two sentence sample to share.  It was good to get together and share the Historical Methods article, and show her the writing rubrics.  We talked about some ideas, but we didn't officially decide on the prompt or the writing method we would use.  I even offered to come in the afternoons a couple of times to work together with her and her students.  I'm sure that we will come to a decision soon, and I will update you when we get started.

Reflection Wordle

The words that stand out show that the students were reflective in their writing about the social studies content.  It was really fun to think of all the ways we could incorporate a wordle in our classrooms too.
