Brain Pop Jr.

I am utilizing a program called Brain Pop Jr. with many of my classes to teach smaller skills. Today we read the book The Pain and the Great One and then watched a short video that taught us refresher skills on contractions. The girls from Mrs. Rosbrook's Class really enjoyed it and then we worked on a practice sheet of contractions. They did so well and I am so proud of them!

Top 10 Lists

We are right in the middle of reading the book Because of Winn Dixie. We just finished reading Opal's list containing ten facts about her Mama. We then created our own Top Ten List of interesting facts about ourselves.
It was a very fun activity and we all learned some interesting facts about each other!
