This past week students worked hard on preparing reader's theatre plays during guided reading. On Friday they had a chance to perform their plays for their classmates. Every group did a great job! You can check out a short clip of each group's performance below!
Last week we also learned all about dinosaurs. We started the week by writing non-fiction reports about real dinosaurs. Students worked with a partner to write their reports about dinosaurs including: T-rex, velociraptor, stegosaurs, triceratops, pteranodon, and apatosaurus.
Then later in the week students excavated fossils as paleontologists to create their own dinosaurs.
Then students wrote both a fiction and non-fiction piece about their dinosaurs.
This fall I received a grant from the PTA to purchase some new materials for our classroom -- this week we finally got to try them out!
