Talahi Elementary- Day 6

Today at Talahi there were a lot of hand-on activities. The students have been studying the weather so all week they have had snow in the sensory table for them to play in. They love it. It amazes me all the different things they come up with.

The class worked on stories for writers workshop. This is a really cool part of the day. The students have the opportunity to sit alone in a part of the room, listen to music and write about whatever they wish. I was working with a boy named Harrison who was making a story about star wars. It was an amazing story that had a ton of misspelled words yet I could still read everything and see it in the pictures.

Fifth graders also came into our class to read us their homemade stories as well. That was quite fun because the stories were twists of traditionally told stories like the Three Little Pigs. This caught the children's attention and made them listen to find out what would happen next.

This was an awesome day with the Kindergartner's and I am beginning to realize how much I will miss them once I am gone. 2 more days....
