I often think about how important it is for all of my
students to have access to technology, skills that develop innovation and
creative thinking, and real life problem solving skills. In the article I read
this week it talked about using a program called Launch to have a specials
class in the six day cycle. When I think about my L2 students I think about how
real world problem solving, and more student centered learning would really
enhance their language and their confidence as English speakers in the classroom.

The best part about a STEM class like this is that it ties
in all of the other content areas. Now students have the ability to problem
solve and question in a way that is meaningful. Despite if the classroom
teacher is comfortable, every student it getting it every six days. There are
some who say that doing it in isolation is not the way to go, but I think it is
a great start. Plus, as classroom teachers our spaces and materials can be
limited. What if this was an extra way to go above and beyond the curriculum to
enrich the students’ experiences in the school. I am wondering if this will
make its way to our school! It sounds really neat! <o:p></o:p></div>

I was extremely excited this week as I began reading. I
found a quick <a href="http://www.wowt.com/content/news/Camp-teaches-students-English-and-technology-431638063.html">article</a> and video about using coding and robotics with L2
students in the classroom. Coding has been a passion of mine for a few years
and one thing that I have noticed is that girls and minorities are grossly
underrepresented in the technology field. As a female and an inclusion teacher
for L2 students I knew that I wanted to make sure that all students in my
classroom had the opportunity to code and learn about technology. In my small
town our migrant population does not always have access to devices and
internet. There was a clear digital divide happening in my classroom and I
wanted to address it. During small groups I would pull my students who had less
experience with technology and the language and give them extra supports. I
often taught them little tricky to boost their confidence. <o:p></o:p></div>

As the weeks rolled on I noticed I was hearing them speak
more, take control of the robots, and working with their peers. It was a hands
on activity and the coding language spoke to all of them. As a class we really
built a great team unit and I feel that it brought us closer together. The
robots could be programmed to speak and sometimes they would speak in English
and sometimes they would program them to speak in Spanish. It was amazing and heartwarming
to see them come together and celebrate their diversity. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Technology has become a hot topic in the classroom and a
very big focus in education. During my coursework for Instructional Technology
I have really begun to think about how there is a lot of talk about the What
and How of technology, but very few are talking about the Why. Simon Sinek has
a video about starting with you why. I am wondering if teachers and schools took
more time to think about <b>why</b> maybe we would be better off. <o:p></o:p><br />

Teachers of ESL students need to think about why our
students would benefit from technology. Our students need opportunities to explore
the language in meaningful experiences. They need to have opportunities to be
engaged in the language with vocabulary supports and opportunities for
connectivity. When learners are learning and exploring naturally with tools
that they can manipulate they will be more inclined to take risks. Technology
is a tool for learning not a destination. Now that we have our why let’s think
about how we might do this and what we might need… thoughts?</div>

As I was reading this week I stumbled across two different
articles that spoke to me. The first was about the need of Professional Development
for teachers especially in the areas of TESOL. The second was about how our
English Learners need more support in schools. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I sat after reading them and wondered if perhaps the two are
not related. We are not doing enough for our students learning English and we
do not currently receive enough PD on topics of teaching English as a second
language. <o:p></o:p></div>

<i>With limited funding and lack of time, how can we implement
different ways to grow as teachers so that we are meeting the needs of all of
our students?</i><o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Two years ago I attended a technology conference in Hershey,
PA called PETE&C. While there I was at an “Unconference” learning session.
When you arrived you could sit anywhere and have conversations about any topic
you chose. While there I began talking about professional development and how
it is a passion of mine. Another teacher shared with me that teachers in her building were
taking time during the school day to discuss topics of their choice with anyone
who was interested. It sounded amazing but how does it work?<o:p></o:p></div>

Teachers would log onto their school Lino board and use color coded
sticky notes to share topics they wanted to learn about or topics they felt comfortable
sharing about. Once a green and pink sticky note were posted teachers would
post on a blue sticky note that they were interested in attending. Depending on
the size of the group they would decide their location. After reading the
articles about quality PD and finding ways to make our teaching better I
thought that this is something that we all could be doing. It is free and often
times teachers around you are doing things you do not even realize. Using each
other as a resource is the best way to build school culture. <o:p></o:p></div>

I am excited to potentially continue the Lino board next

<div class="MsoNormal">
This week I stumbled across an <a href="http://www.castlegarnews.com/community/selkirk-college-tesol-program-brings-international-experience-home/">article from Castlegar News</a>. It
told the story of Emily Kandborg and her journey as she became a teacher of
teaching English as a second language. The first quote from her spoke to me immediately.
She said, <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i>“Learning and teaching culture is my passion, and while my
students are here learning English and what becoming Canadian is about, I get
the opportunity to learn everything about them as well. Being able to give them
the language tools to express themselves and share their culture is the most
gratifying thing.”</i><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As an inclusion teacher for my grade level, something resonated
with me about the ability to teach and learn culture. Often times when you
think of teaching students who are learning English as a second language you
think of the work that needs to be done. The speaking, listening, reading, and
writing tasks that need to be taught and learned. You get lost in the "to-do" and can forget that the culture is the core of who we are.
There is no place for it on a lesson plan - maybe there should be. Students
come into our classrooms where the culture is very different and the way that
we interact can even be different. As a small child I am sure this can be overwhelming
and even scary. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Emily made another comment in the article about how resilient her
students were despite everything they had been through. I think about that all
the time when I look at my students. It amazes me how small children can come
to school with all of this “stuff” weighing on them and manage to sit quietly,
follow directions, and do as they are asked. Most of the time all while exceeding
my expectations.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I have taken time to build culture within out classroom, but this makes me stop and reflect. Have I taken the time to let in my students culture? Have I made time to tell them how proud I am for how hard they work?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Each year is an opportunity to be a better version of yourself. Looking forward to all that the new school year will bring! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

I began my Bachelor’s degree at the University of Central
Florida and began taking TESOL classes as a part of my elementary education
program. I quickly fell in love with these classes and knew that I had a
passion for working with students who speak English as a second language. I
began my career teaching first grade in a rural school district with a large
migrant population. All of my classes from UCF had paid off and I was able to
use everything that I learned with my students. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
As I am going into my 6<sup>th</sup> year of teaching I am
excited to continue to work as an inclusion classroom for our ESL students. The
journey I go through with my students is different for each of them as they
bring different experiences with them. One thing I try to foster in my
classroom is a sense of community. While we all are different, on the inside we
are very similar. We all want to be heard, included, and loved. I feel that
this environment has helped my quietest of students find their voice in our
classroom. <o:p></o:p></div>

I am currently enrolled in a graduate course called Computer
Assisted Language Learners. We are using Google Alerts https://www.google.com/alerts
to tag items related to TESOL and Technology. Each week we will reflect on our
readings with a blog post about the article and what we have learned. I was
nervous to get started because I only had one Google Alert! When I went to my
email to read what had been sent I was delightfully surprised. <o:p></o:p></div>

KJ Kaiser is a professor at Webster University and recently
spoke in Uruguay at the LATU Education and Technology. While the article I
found was short it led me to look more into KJ Kaiser and his role in TESOL.
The LATU website was exciting and very eye opening and had wonderful resources.
I decided to Google KJ Kaiser so I could learn more about his work. I found his
blog and several videos including the most recent one of him speaking in
Uruguay. Then something happened…<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I started watching the video and realized that it was not in
English. I quickly tried to see if a translation was available for me to read
and there was nothing. I tried watching some of it to see if maybe parts of it
were in English and none of it was. Sitting along hearing a group of others
talk in another language and wishing I understood was an overwhelming feeling.
Not one I was expecting to feel as I began my research. My mind quickly went to
a former student of mine. It made me wonder how he sat in my classroom day
after day doing his very best to absorb this new world around him all while
smiling and giving each day his best. I felt guilty, privileged, and a little
ashamed. I do not think I completely understood how overwhelming it all can be.
While searching about KJ Kaiser I did learn some great strategies for the
classroom, but what stood out to me most was thinking about that student. <o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
I have started something new this year that I have been wanting to share and just have not had the chance.<br />
<br />
I am beyond excited about this new way of keeping student data all in one place. Just to show you how excited I am about it... I created this video with a few extra special helpers!<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The whole point of this is to show you how you can use your iPad and a few great apps to keep all of your student data on your iPad instead of carrying mountains of paper work home!</div>
<br />
<br />
The first app that I am going to share is Notability!<br />
<br />

This is a note taking app that allows you to keep your notes organized in folders. It also lets you annotate over top of pictures. One of my favorite features is it records audio. I use this while doing running records so that I can go back and listen to my students while reflecting on my notes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once you have created student folders it looks something like this..</div>

I also use this app for other things like running records, math and writing conferences, tracking reading progress, and any other notes I might want to keep on them. I will even make a note for parent contact, so that I have track of when we have spoken!<br />
<br />
I created an example running record to show you. I did this because I do not want you to think they look beautiful. This is my notebook... truly. Some notes look neater than others! My running records are usually pretty quick. Often during writing and math I will take a picture of the students work and drop it into the note. Then I can comment on it and add notes!<br />

There are some pages that I the students are required to participate. The reading progress chart is one of them. They use the coloring tool and are able to see how they have grown since the last time we assessed. I also created a darker line on the chart so that I know where they are supposed to be at that point in the year.<br />

<br />
I feel like it has been too long since I have sat down for a good blog session!<br />
<br />
This summer was filled with all sorts of emotion! At the beginning of May, my husband and I purchased our first home! Our home was built in 1900, and from the moment I walked through it I knew it was where I wanted to start our family. It has such character and charm. As a little girl, I always pictured my house with a big front porch and a swing. When we started out on our house hunting journey, I never thought we would find anything like this house in our price range. After several months of looking, this house came onto the market. It needed some improvements, but overall it was the perfect home for us!<br />
<br />
If you are friends with my on Instagram, you know how much time I dedicated to decorating this front porch. My poor husband was knocking down walls on the inside, while I was planting and crafting on the outside. (I have to take a moment to say how blessed I am to be sitting next to such a wonderful man! He has spent and continues to spend countless hours on this home to make it perfect. He has the patience of a saint, and I know our dreams would not be a reality without him! Love you, Babe!)<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So after the house was "somewhat" done, we decided to have our housewarming party! I was so excited and so nervous. I wanted everything to be perfect (surprise), but it is just so hard to make a house your own in just 2 months. Needless to say, there was plenty of food and drinks for the guests. Most people spent their time in the backyard enjoying the beautiful weather, and everyone thought the house was beautiful! </div>

I remember as guests were arriving feeling very frazzled and just not myself! My poor husband can attest to this! Just a week after the housewarming party I was starting to feel less and less like myself and was praying that maybe our plan of starting a family was coming true. We were on vacation visiting my family in Florida when I felt almost positive that I was pregnant. Davey and I ran out to the store to get a test and were beyond words when the test came back positive. We had only just started trying, and I never thought it would happen so quick. As excited as we were we decided to give it some time before we told anyone. A few weeks later we were back at home and still in shock that our lives were going to change forever. Davey had begun to plan the nursery. He was so set on painting a mural in the nursery. But then a Saturday morning that changed everything. I had woken up and went to use the bathroom. My body felt different. Weak and achy. I noticed some bleeding... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I called the doctor, and he confirmed I was most likely miscarrying and that there was nothing they could really do for me because it was so early on. I cried a heartbreak that I have not felt since my sister passed. I never knew I could have such strong feelings over a child I had never held in my arms. I prayed to god to give me another chance, but I knew there was no undoing what had been done. I wanted to hide away. I felt ashamed like maybe I had done something wrong. I packed away the little gray romper that I had bought and the few maternity items I had got out of excitement. I went back to work with my cheerleaders and just tried not to think of what we had lost. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I consider myself to be a pretty happy person, but it was so hard to go through all of that alone. We did not tell our families. We suffered in silence. It was awful...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I begged my husband if we could start trying again. I think he was nervous, even with the doctor's approval. After lots of talking and crying, we decided that we were not ready to give up. Just 24 days after miscarrying I took another pregnancy test and the little line was faint, but it was there. I refused to get my hopes up. I waited 3 days and took another. Each time I took another test the line got brighter and brighter. When I went in for my first visit, my doctor could hardly believe the news. He said it was a miracle I got pregnant again so quickly. I was over the moon! I was going to be a mommy!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This time I decided that instead of keeping the news to ourselves we were going to share with our family. I knew that if I had to go through all of it again, I would rather be able to cry in the arms of those who love me than suffer in silence. The different reactions we got were priceless. I have them all written down so that I can one day share them with our little peanut. </div>

I am 16 weeks today, just 4 weeks away from finding out the gender. I still have days where I am scared and nervous about what could happen, but mostly I feel overwhelmingly happy that there is a little life growing inside of me. I dreamt about this for a long time, and it is so much better than I could have every imagined. We continue to count our blessings each day and look forward to holding our little peanut in our arms in May! </div>

As many of you know I love trying new things in my classroom! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One thing I really love is decorating it in a new way each year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Some things roll over from year to year, but one thing I normally change is my bulletin boards. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This year I decided to do something new and make pennant banners out of scrapbook paper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was not sure how I would add the letters on and was running out of time. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I just created them on the computer - cut them out - and glued them on!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had this left over ribbon and strung them up! I am in LOVE! </div>

The end to a great year!</h2>
<br>
Where did this school year go?<br>
<br>
I still can't quite believe that this school year is over and I have already begun to think about next year.<br>
<br>
This year was a rather difficult year to finish. As the final days approached we all knew that saying goodbye to a dear friend was near. Mrs. Lockhart was retiring after 33 years of teaching. She is one of those people who has a great impact on so many peoples lives. Not just her students, but the staff as well. I have only spent two years with her, but in those two years she has grown to be my school mom and a very dear friend. We celebrated her last days with lots of fun. Then it was time for the goodbye. There were plenty of tears on my behalf, and I know we will all miss seeing her smiling face in the building each day. The good news is she is off to relax and spend time with her family.<br>
<br>
Mrs. Lockhart we love you and will miss you!<br>

I did it! I switched to the life planner this year instead of the lesson planner. I am not sure how it is going to work... but I am very excited!<br>
<br>
My problem with the lesson planner was the size. It was hard to carry it around with me when I was out and about. Then someone would ask me what I was doing on such and such date and I had no clue! The life planner is smaller and can fit in my purse.<br>
<br>This is the cover I chose!<div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNfD2rwX2eWiMBon4R4HctQYR2cEeZdT-xgiUTXEYt1gKSUqJhrNsOKGB5IMLlmsA5DZu0oVI84c_WKZjlBRVESWX9CpU00r1LBsKWFLuIShnGGAIrb3G102ab9ch_GZ6yCorIfnaM6IIF/s640/blogger-image--628187836.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNfD2rwX2eWiMBon4R4HctQYR2cEeZdT-xgiUTXEYt1gKSUqJhrNsOKGB5IMLlmsA5DZu0oVI84c_WKZjlBRVESWX9CpU00r1LBsKWFLuIShnGGAIrb3G102ab9ch_GZ6yCorIfnaM6IIF/s640/blogger-image--628187836.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><br>

<div style="text-align: left;">
What is it? How can I use it? Will it really increase student engagement?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Project Based Learning is all about giving the students the opportunity to have authentic learning experiences, where they are in charge of gathering knowledge. I think about this all the time as a teacher. I went to elementary school and learned very similar things that I am teaching my students. I always struggled with math as a student, but now that I have to teach it I understand it much better. Would I have been a better math student all those years ago if I were learning and finding the information myself? If I would have had to explain my thinking and work in collaboration with my peers, I <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">know</b> I would have been a better math student.</div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I watched these three videos about Project Based Learning to gain a better understanding of what it looks like in a real classroom. I LOVE that they show primary students doing it as well!<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I don’t know about you…but I always question what my young students are able to do. I do not want to overwhelm them with something that is too complex. I really <u>need</u> to let go of that! Because what is the worst that can happen? It may not work, and we would have to try something different! Trial and error is a great lesson! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The three lessons from the videos have very similar design structure. Each lesson is crafted so that the students can explore a real word topic within the walls of their classroom. There may be times where they gain knowledge from field trips or experts, but most of their research is done in the classroom using a variety of technology. The role of the teacher changes in a PBL classroom. The teacher becomes a facilitator. The teacher does most of the preparation before the students walk into the classroom. The teacher will prep the classroom so that it is ready for groups of students to conduct research and gain knowledge about the topic they are studying. The students go from sitting in quiet rows to working in busy collaborative groups.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This approach changes things! It puts the job of learning in the hands of the students. If they do not know the answer, they work together with their teacher to research the answer. It gives them more control over their learning, which leads to higher student engagement. They are creating meaningful work, and the stakes are higher. The students have higher motivation and all around learning is increased.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
These articles and videos are making me question my own teaching practices! What can I do different? I want my students to learn, understanding, and then have the ability and knowledge to teach the topic to someone else! I cannot wait to start using Project Based Learning into our classroom!<br />

<br />
I am here today to share with you this awesome website called <a href="http://donorschoose.org/">DonorsChoose.org</a><br />
<br />
At Donors Choose you can create a class project that you need help funding. It may be technology, materials, a guest speaker, and so much more. Once you type up the information it has to be submitted to the website. They will let you know if it has been approved (you may have to make adjustments). Once it has been approved you may send it out to everyone you know and hope and pray that you get your project funded!<br />
<br />
I was in need of some technology in our classroom. I created a funding project for an iPad and an Apple TV. I posted it to Facebook and asked my friends in family for their support. I NEVER thought that in 1.5 days the project would be funded and I would have the materials in my classroom less then a week later!<br />
<br />
One of my favorite thing about Donors Choose is that they have a period of time where your family/friends can type in the code INSPIRE when they donate and another company will match their donations up to $100. It makes everything so much quicker! So a $20 turns into $40 - a $100 turns into $200 - and so on!<br />

So this was my first <a href="http://instagram.com/firstgradetchrlady">Instagram</a> post after I found out that I was funded! It was just 1 week ago today!<br />

This was me yesterday holding my brand new iPad! The apple TV is on my desk ;)<br />

I will warn you!! If you are trying to hook up the apple tv to your projection screen you will need a special cord. It may depend on the projector type! This is the one I ordered from amazon! <b>Click</b> on the picture to buy it from Amazon. You may want to check with your tech department to be sure it is the correct cord for you!</div>

A few friends on Instagram were curious how an Apple TV would work in the classroom. I thought I would give a few details for those who are interested. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Apple TV just plugged in gives you access to Netflix, some news channels, Discovery, your music, your videos, YouTube, etc. That is a nice feature, but the reason it is <u>beneficial</u> to a teacher is because it allows you to mirror most apple products. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When you mirror an iPad it can be wonderful!! There are times where you want to show the class how an app works, so this would allow you to teach it quickly to the entire group. You can display class books from apps like <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/book-creator-for-ipad/id442378070?mt=8">Book Creator</a> (see my previous post about this app). Then with a basic drawing app you can use it as an interactive white board. I do not have a smart board so this is AMAZING!! Then if you have more than one iPad you can bounce back and forth to view other screens. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lets say you are teaching a math problem. You tell the students to solver the problem 4+8 using any method that they choose. You can quickly flash a students work onto the screen and show them how this student used a picture, then flash another one up to the screen to show how another student used a different strategy. It is super easy to teach the students how to do!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There are also other apps like <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/showme-interactive-whiteboard/id445066279?mt=8">Show Me</a> or <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/educreations-interactive-whiteboard/id478617061?mt=8">Educreations</a> where a student may be working independently to solve a problem or respond to reading. You can show the students work to the class by again just mirroring the iPad! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you have any questions feel free to email me or comment below. I will try to post some more directions on hooking it all up next week!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Have a wonderful weekend!</div>

<br />
It all started when my class came back from Christmas break. We started to learn how to question before, during, and after reading. We started by questioning with fiction texts. Kheila posted a great post about that. Check it out <a href="http://twofriendsinfirst.blogspot.com/2014/02/questioning-week-of-activities.html">here</a>.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;">last year I have really fell in love with teaching penguins. I wanted to go beyond just labeling the parts of the penguins and reading facts to the children. I wanted the kids to take part int the process. My sweet friend Kheila from </span><a href="http://twofriendsinfirst.blogspot.com/" style="text-align: start;">Two Friends In First</a><span style="text-align: start;"> told me about something she has done before called rainbow books. It took some time for me to get a solid handle on it, but now that I have done it from start to end I am in LOVE with this process. I am by no means am an expert on this, but this is how I managed to make it work in my classroom this year!</span></div>
<br />
When we started to question with non-fitction we wrote down any questions we had about penguins on Post-it notes and then just stuck all of them up on the board. (It was a large sea of questions! That had so many things they were curious about)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
After all of our questions were written down we grouped our questions into larger groups. I used our "schema" folders to do so. We knew we would be finding the answers to these questions and in effect we would be adding schema to our brain!<br />
<br />
Before we started reading we decided on a color coded system that would allow us to code the answers to the corresponding question color. For example, any information in the book that related to what penguins looked like would be tabbed purple.<br />
<br />
Then we pulled out all of our books about penguins and we set to work!<br />
<br />
First I read 2-3 penguin books together as a class and we practiced how and when to add the color coded tabs. I wanted to do it as a whole class first so that there would be less questions when they set to work independently.<br />
<br />
I assigned a folder to each of my reading groups. Then I pulled books that I felt each reading group could handle reading on their own and we set to work! Believe it or not there are good penguin books on the lower levels like E and F. I have 4-5 that they were able to look at independently. There was one or two that we did as a "shared reading" during guided reading and we all just worked together. My other 4 groups did a wonderful job and were able to read most of the books. I also remind my students that text features give you lots of clues about what the page is all about.<br />

They absolutely loved doing the research!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then once we had finished the research it was time to get writing! We spent a few days during writing block to talk about text features and how they help you to tell a story. We referenced other non-fiction books to learn for expert authors. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I met with them in groups and we looked at each section of our folders and decided how we could break that question down so that everyone could contribute to the book. I created these layouts for each group so that they could remember their topic. These pages were great for keeping organized! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At first they created their own page independently so I could see what text features they decided to use and what information they were communicating to the reader. Together we looked at their writing and we figured out how to make it better and adjust it. The page with blue pen is the page we did together. </div>

Once the rough drafts were done it was time to create our book! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We used Book Creator to do this project. I chose this app over the many others out there because…</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. It is easy for the kids to use</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. It allows them to draw into the app</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3. It allows you to record their voice reading the text (an extra fun way to make it personalized)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4. It can be put into your iBooks library or exported as a PDF for printing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So with some help of a very kind class mom and all my students we were able to create our very first digital class book!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Check out the quick video I took of the book. It was the only way I could let you hear their voices! I only did a few just to give you the idea :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">Sorry the video is not great! I tried a few times… and this was the best I could do!</span></div>

<br />
I feel like I have not blogged in forever... <br />
<br />
Maybe it is because of my old age ;) You know... I am 100 years old!<br />

Well I was for 100th day anyway... My team and I had a wonderful time dressing up with our students. I must say though that after a full day of acting 100 years old, I started to feel 100! </div>

The students had a great day. We were so busy with other things though, that we did not have a lot of time for 100th day activities this year. I would LOVE to hear what your favorite 100th day activities are! Share in the comment section below!<br />

<br />
I hope you are enjoying the holiday break! I am getting excited for the new year! Hard to believe it is almost 2014!<br />
<br />
As the new year approaches, we all start to think about how we can make this year an even better then years past.<br />
<br />
What is your new years resolution? What are your goals for the new year?<br />
<br />
My new years resolution is to STOP drinking soda! I am praying that I can kick it once and for all!<br />
<br />
My goal for this year are to purchase our very first home! I could go on and on about so many other goals.. but that one is the biggest :)<br />
<br />
I wish you all the best in the upcoming year!<br />
<br />
Smiles,<br />

I have been having a great week! How about you? Any elves in your lives?<br />

Buddy is back! He brought a letter from SANTA! My students from last year have even been down to my class! They cannot believe that Buddy came back to my room AGAIN! So far Buddy has been a much better elf this year. He is doing his job of watching the children and not getting into too much trouble....yet! </div>

<br />
My happiness in life revolves around my ability to be creative. Teaching and everything that surrounds that gives me an energy and happiness about life. I try to surround myself with people who have the same passion for teaching because it motivates me, inspires me, and pushes me forward. Recently a blogger friend reached out to me and asked me if I was willing to join her and some other bloggers on a collaborative blog.<br />
<br />
After talking it through with my husband, I knew it was a journey worth taking. I decided to join this group with 19 other co-bloggers! Now, we are really excited and ready to share with all of you but we cannot decide on a name! It is so hard to choose one name that describes all that we are trying to do.<br />
<br />
We want to give teachers a blog that they can turn to for inspiration, instructional support, and just lots of imagination! So here is where we need you....<br />

Thank you for your support!<br />

<br />
Guided reading can be very overwhelming for a new teacher! Last year I felt like I had a lot to learn and needed to change what I was doing. So, this summer I set off to figure out what I was missing. <br />
<br />
My first goal this year was to get organized! I do not know about you but I work better when everything has a place!<br />
<br />
I started off my shopping at <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Mrs-Jones-Creation-Station">Mrs. Jones Creation Station</a> TPT Store!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I bought this Guided Reading Materials Pack</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1XRC10P6zt9gjCFNolIPopZT58XHLHKPtc5BaK6Ayb13G1Q_lM-JC3HhAB_jXxMnk9Sd8sBvNDihSfKHWuxJIXNFTVKqjDiY-AkNTbBtWisWTioHNnvS35oV81MqBHbsH8E2JjJ-5crK7/s1600/Screenshot+2013-10-21+19.46.31.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1XRC10P6zt9gjCFNolIPopZT58XHLHKPtc5BaK6Ayb13G1Q_lM-JC3HhAB_jXxMnk9Sd8sBvNDihSfKHWuxJIXNFTVKqjDiY-AkNTbBtWisWTioHNnvS35oV81MqBHbsH8E2JjJ-5crK7/s1600/Screenshot+2013-10-21+19.46.31.png" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It has so far been the best thing I could have done for myself!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then I started to realize that everyone needs to be able to adjust things to meet their own needs. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used what I bought and added to it to make it work for my own classroom. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is an addition that I have added to keep everything easily organized and color coded :)</div>
