Chalk Talk

In Writers' Workshop, students engaged in a "Chalk Talk" to show and build on each others' thinking about seed and watermelon ideas (see below).  It's critical students take ownership of these ideas as all personal narratives are based on seed ideas (small moments).  Ask your child about seed ideas from their life.

In Readers' Workshop, students used sticky notes to stop, think, and jot down what they're wondering.  Sticky notes are great tools to support comprehension and encourage readers to slow down and critically think about text.

In Math Workshop, students noticed and noted relationships between numbers to help them solve problems in money.  Specifically, we can use "counting on" to help us make change, rather than regrouping.
