"Hi. My name is Sally and I'm a recess-holic. I haven't used since yesterday"
Anyway- trying to improve those
They were going to take turns, place their card under the # of phonemes they hear in the word.
So, "Jack" says, "Miss Squirrels! Miss Squirrels! Miss Squirrels!" {because he always says my name three times} "I'm all done look at my cards!"
I had him tell me what the picture was and then he used the counting creatures to count the sounds.
{We were on our way to extending to writing} but alas, it was not to be....
I picked up a card- to be pictured in a moment- because I was sure it was 6 sounds, but "Jack" had it under 3.
The back of the card had potato written on it- that is not what he saw.
I said, "Well 'Jack', This is a potato. Watch me count it on the creature. We will place it under the 6 card. Let's count the sounds."
"I did! I did! I did! I did count the sounds and its THREE!"
"Well. Jack, what word do you think this is?"
"Poop. Watch me count it on creature- p/oo/p. Poop."
It was at that moment that I knew this lesson had gone to #%@^#!
Heading to my big appointment today! Nervous, excited, scared.....I just can't wait!
And I love the tags- it's the answers to the questions that are the best- teachers are just so darn witty!
If I am not all swollen, I will post a pic-
Have a great Tuesday!
(Tech problem: I downloaded SMiley Monster- but when I try to use it in word or ppt, the dots on the "i" is cut off and the "g" and "y" are cut off- I have changed the size of the font and that didn't work- and I scrapped it and downloaded a new one.....any suggestions??)
Ok, NOW you can have a great Tuesday
{after you solve my problem}.
Just kidding!
Get outta here-
you have work to do.......
go........really:)
Ha ha!! I love it!

ReplyDeleteI think my favorite part of this post is the tag "poop" at the end! LOL! And, I agree... with our caffeine and nap obsessed selves, PLUS black cardigans, we are quite the pair! :)
