Five for Friday and Insects :)
Try number two! I hope my pictures show up this time!!!! On a Saturday of course! This week we started our insect unit! We practiced close reading using the Fly Guy Presents Insects book. We started with a schema chart. As we read this and other texts we confirmed our schema and added to our new learning. I'm surprised they only had two misconceptions! We spent two days reading this book and creating our chart. Then we used the text to understand new vocabulary words and shared our learning with table top blogs! As you can see, results were varied! :) The instructions were to explain their words using pictures and or words. "Antennae is a thing is on the body the antennae help them hear and help them taste and help them touch and help them" If you want some more ideas I made a free close reading pack for this book! We used construction paper and paper from our scrap bin to create these
