"Who Am I" Books

Today, we worked on our "Who Am I" books in 3rd through 6th grades. For instructions on how to make these, please look here on one of my favorite websites for learning how to make different book forms. The students used this activity to practice the techniques of making these books and to review the book characters that they had chosen for the election project.

This week, Mrs. Tarleton and I will be helping the students research about Native Americans and the first colonists in the computer lab. In the coming weeks, we will make another "Who Am I" book with more detail and planning out of recycled materials. This project will record some of the things we have been learning about Native Americans, colonists, Thanksgiving, and this special time of our American history. Please save cereal boxes (flatten them out) and paper grocery bags for this project.

Pre-K through second grade students reviewed the procedures for looking for books and checking out books. Pre-K and Kindergarten students will begin checking out books to take to their classrooms next week. This will give them good practice for taking them home later on.
