Henry and Mudge Literacy Journal

image

Here is the Literacy Journal I plan to use with our Henry and Mudge stories.

I plan to make several copies of the Favorite Part and Story Map pages. I’ll compile the first six pages into their journals.

I’ll leave he book recommendation  out of the journal, and instead make several copies so my students can complete these as they finish a book during the week.

After they complete their recommendations I’ll post the forms on a special bulletin board in the room.

 

 


Henry and Mudge Literature Study Journal

Ms. A

Henry and Mudge and Mrs. Hopper’s House

This week is Spring Break for me…but here’s the word work my students will work on for our next story, Henry and Mudge and Mrs. Hopper’s House.

They will sort the words onto the correct mat. Then I’ll have them use a dry erase board and marker to write sentences. I’ll probably do this with my guided reading groups first then put it out as a Work on Words choice.


Owl word sort

We are also going to do a lit study of all the Henry and Mudge books. I’m working on the Literature Journal for that as well as my regular literacy pack. Hope to get them done by mid week…so check back soon.

I know  some people abhor “worksheets” but I don’t feel like my Lit Packets are just a collection of worksheets…more like tools to show what my students have learned for the week. It’s written evidence that’s completely engaging, totally fun as well as very practical.

Don’t forget tomorrow I’ll announce the winner of my book giveaway!

Book Giveaway

I have confessed in an earlier post that I was indeed a PBJ. Hands-on Math: Learning Numeration Through Manipulative Activities

Well, I have duplicate copies of this book (a story I don’t want to get into at this time) and thought it would be a great giveaway.

This  would be good for math stations. There are three sections, each one dealing with hands on numeration activities.

Section 1: Numeration Activities through 100

Section 2: Numeration Activities through 1,000

Section 3: Numeration Activities through 100,000,000

So I’ve decided to give it away to one lucky winner. I figured what better way to kick off my Spring Break than to give. Who doesn’t love free stuff!

All you have to do is:

1. Leave a post about one math station or fun math activity you do with your class.

2. Follow my blog.

 

The contest ends Sunday-Midnight CST.

Monday I’ll post the winner.

TGIF!!!!
