Eric Carle Razzlin' Dazzlin' Words

This week we have been reading all "The Very" books by Eric Carle, like The Very Hungry Caterpillar, The Very Busy Spider, The Very Lonely Firefly, etc. We've been collecting razzlin' dazzlin' words from the stories and we've made a thematic word wall to put all of the words we've found. Some of the words include: sparkling, encountered, grouchy, pesty, glittering, flooding, pop, and froth. I had the students during writer's workshop write a story that used at least one of their new razzlin' dazzlin' words. I was SOOO thrilled with what I received from my brilliant students! I'm hoping that some of my students will find time to post some of their wonderful stories!

Being a Fearless Speller

I thought I would help and clarify Amiracle's post. This week, my class all became super heroes. We are all Fearless Spellers (to get the effect you have to say that in your best super hero voice with your hands on your hip, pretending you are wearing a cape). This is just a new way of saying invented spelling, but its so much more fun. My kids have really caught onto it too! They basically just stretch out their words and write the sounds they hear. During writer's workshop the other day I was conferencing with one of my students who had signed up for a teacher conference and he started to ask me, "Ms. Smith, how do you spell..." and he caught himself, covered his mouth really fast, and then whispered with his hands at his hips "I'm a fearless speller". I could hardly control my excitement. I bragged and bragged on this student for being a fearless speller and so it began. I have fearless spellers in math, science, and reading. Its a teaching tool, adorably cute, and saving me TONS of time not having to spell every single word. My little kid-o's are so smart!

i am a fearless speller

i like to be fearless speuer, a fearless speller stretches out new words.

Our new favorite toys

The whole class earned choice time today! I bought Magnetix off the internet and it is by far our favorite toy to play with. Even the girls like building things with Magnetix. Definitely money well spent.
