We have been reviewing for last few weeks to get ready for testing this week. The day before the test.... BAM! I was looking at blank stares and hearing crickets. Not a hand went up.... they had officially had ENOUGH! Some quick thinking on my part and told them to line up to go outside. It was only 10:00 a.m. so they knew something was up. I dug into my cabinet and grabbed a bunch of boxes of sidewalk chalk. We went outside and made a big circle and I gave them a piece of chalk and our review was exciting once again! First we reviewed commas in a series!
Then we moved to a new space and worked on writing capital letters in the correct places. Why do they write Mrs. with all caps? I will never know! I just had to take a picture of it!
We went over contractions, writing the date, and anything else I could think of!
This was one of those moments that I got to remember why I love teaching.... when you look at their little faces and see smiles while they are learning! So this will be a regular activity for me every single year!
Have a great evening!
