Storytelling

We practiced storytelling this week in both reading and writing.

After reading The Little Old Lady who wasn't Afraid of Anything, we colored our own scarecrows and practiced retelling the story!  Retelling stories are a fundamental part of reading comprehension.
 
 
 
 
In writing, we practiced telling stories about being scared, adding to them and revising.  We added sound effects and marks to show movement to our stories and drawings!  We are posting our writing samples about how we revise in kindergarten, so be sure to check them out in the hall!

 
 
 
Our star student's mom was a guest reader.  She read The Three Little Pigs to our class, and used props as she read and talked about the story.  We had a great time huffing and puffing like the big bad wolf!
