The students have worked incredibly hard these past few weeks with our first writing and reading units. We spent several weeks talking about our "reading beanstalks" and learning how to make them "grow" this year. To celebrate all of our hard work in this first reading unit, we watched "Mickey's Beanstalk" and had a popcorn treat. Likewise, we spent our first several weeks in writing learning how to write small moment stories about our lives. We learned that it's important to pull out a tiny "seed" instead of writing the "whole watermelon." Since we had referred to watermelons throughout our first writing unit, we ended our unit with a watermelon treat. The kids enjoyed a slice of watermelon and got to share their favorite writing piece with their classmates.
