I think they may be a little nervous about the turkeys.

Tall Tales

My wonderful little class has been working so hard lately on their writing skills. They have tried to be patient as I teach them the steps of the writing process, when I know they really just want to get right to the final copy and be done with it. Here are a few pictures of our group working diligently.

We have been learning all about fables, folktales, and tall tales.  Students had to write their own tall tale and illustrate it.  They came up with some great ideas. 

Our finished product..."The Tall Tale" written on extra tall paper...

Young Inventor

This was such a great idea...
The white board in my classroom has decided that it does not want to come clean anymore with just an eraser. I keep having to spray board cleaner, then wipe clean. I mentioned to the class that I wished there was some invention that would combine expo cleaner and an eraser. With this class, ask and you shall receive. Karley came up with this nifty little invention that does just what I need it to. Check it out!

If you look closely enough, she has cut out a place for the small expo bottle to fit.  She hot glued the bottle into the eraser, and left enough space at the top to refill the bottle.  I'm thinking she should patent this. Pretty creative, huh?
