BEAUTIFUL MORNING

KINDNESS HEARTS

SAMUEL WAS OUR

LIBRARIAN

After looking at the picture of the cover

EVERYONE decided this story

was going to be fiction

SOME reasons why?

Pigs don't write

Pigs aren't teachers

Pigs can't make paper airplanes

Pigs don't go to school

I love listening to the children figure things out,

problem solve, use deductive reasoning, etc...

Simon was

weather helper

And he was SO excited he reached

ALL by himself!!

Harrison was prayer leader

The prayer he chose

SCISSOR ASSESSMENT

I will be giving each chid a pair of

scissors...

the scissors up and correctly place it on their hand

how to hold the scissor to cut

cut on a line

Then we made creations

with either the paper they cut or other

embellishments--we have a HUGE variety!!

After each child made his or her creation---

I took a language sample by having him or her 

tell about what he/she created!
