Wow!  What an adventure!  Today I am in a second grade classroom in Paw Paw, MICHIGAN

 We are having such a fun morning together!

The kids started by writing in their journals.  Some of the kids got to post their journal entries on their class blog, so I thought it would be fun to blog, too!

After journals, the class practiced neat handwriting....

...and then they did a spelling dictation sentence about Thanksgiving.  They wrote so neatly and carefully!  After they finished spelling, they went over the words on the board, marking all the parts of speech and syllable types that they found.  Whew, these kids sure are smart!

After spelling, the kids went to Gym where they ran around like crazy kids!  They had a quick snack after Gym and then went outside for recess.  It is about 40 degrees here today, so they put on their winter coats.  No snow yet, but they say it is coming this weekend!  Brrr!

When the kids came back in from recess, I told them my story.  They were very interested in how I got so flat and the adventures I've had!

Then they played a game called Apples to Apples.  It’s a cool game that helps them practice using adjectives with their nouns!  There was a lot of giggling and working in teams!  At 12:15, the kids headed home for the day.  They had a half day today for parent-teacher conferences.  They are on vacation for the rest of the week to celebrate Thanksgiving.  I can’t wait to have some turkey!


Until my next adventure,
