Dear Lara,
Your pics look fantastic. Thanks for uploading photos of the kids work. I think people really appreciate seeing examples of what the students accomplished. :)
In my classroom, we are beginning a fairy tale study. We started reading different fairy tales such as Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, etc and charting the elements of these stories. I will post a pic of our anchor chart soon. We will be reading fairy tales in guided reading and deepening our comprehension discussions. This exploration will lead into our writing workshop where we will be dissecting versions of Little Red Riding Hood. The students will then write their own fractured versions of Little Red Riding hood. It's going to be a lot of work, but I am very excited. Look for an update in the next couple of weeks!
