Our next guest blogger……. Meet Lori from Teaching with Love and Laughter!
This week, in Social Studies, my first graders are learning all about
communities. To get them to think about what's in their community, I
created this web for them to jot down their thoughts. Then, they
rewrote the information in paragraph form. It's amazing how many
children are not aware of the names of stores and places they visit in
their community. They know they go there, but they don't pay attention
to the names or their parents don't tell them. Click on the image
below to get a copy of this web.
students used storybook paper.
These students did not finish their paragraph yet, but I thought they
did a good job on the web.
Vicky lives near me, so notice what she wrote in her web! She actually
asked me if it would be okay for her to write that! How cute!
nice addition to this writing activity, check out Mrs. T's First Grade
blog:
learn about plants and flowers. At this station, they are making paper
flowers and writing a fact on each petal.
Bag. Here, they are sorting nouns, verbs, and adjectives and
recording some of them on the recording sheet.
freebie, please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
Thanks!

I consider you’ve created some genuinely exciting points. Not too most people would in reality consider about this the way you simply did. I’m really impressed that there’s a lot about this topic that’s been uncovered and you also did it so tremendously, with a lot class.
