Traveling Words!



I picked up an idea from a teacher in Sweden.

Make a notebook out of lined paper.
It should only be able to hold two to three words on each line.
The topic is to write what comes to mind when you see the short word the previous writer chose.

You can write a little story.
A poem.
A riddle.
A question.
Anything that comes to mind when you see the word.

When you have written your lines,
choose a new word.
A short word,
for the next writer.
If you want to you can sign your entry.

The students really took this to their hearts.
They are Reading.
And Writing.
And Thinking.
And Communicating.

So if you are visiting our classroom, please read our Traveling Words.
It's always up on the board.
Unless someone is writing in it, that is!

Legos'!

Right now we're building Legos' for a contest. 
The Everhart Museum will have a Lego exhibit in the spring and they want students to send in pictures of Lego Art. The art works will then be juried and the ones picked will be hung in the museums Gallery One.

The kids in the class are all excited and are coming up with great creative ideas.
Whenever our art teacher Michael comes into the class room, all they want to do is work on their Lego Art.
Wonderful, isn't it!

Some pics of what we're doing RIGHT NOW:










We're not finished yet! Still have time to work on it!

The Intermediate class room

We do many things in the Intermediate class room. Like Math 2 and Language 2, Handwriting, and Language and Social Studies. Those are just some of the many things we do in the Intermediate class room. Now some of us are entering a Lego contest if any of us win we could get our work in the Everhart Museum!!!!!! How cool could that be !!!!!! I am entering the contest. I am building my stuffed green monkey Sprite. I really hope my Lego monkey wins. Our deadline is December second. I can't wait untill then! But only 5 entries can be accepted from every class. Even if my Lego monkey is accepted I would be soooo happy!!!!!
