I can not believe we are already into your third week and March. I am excited about the lessons I see developing. When I plan a lesson I think of ways I can use literature and resources. For our children that are motivated by the topic or are high level learners I try to provide additional materials so they can continue working on the topic. There are some very kid friendly on line sites that are very exciting. I also look for ways I can support the children who have limited prior knowledge or need the connection with visuals and limited print.
The other thing I try to bring into the lesson is transitions. I know kids can not sit for more than 15 to twenty minutes before they have to move. The trick is how do I want them to move and how do I smoothly get them there. I have seen students use dance and music in some fun ways. We can talk about these as we plan your lessons.
Thank you for all your hard work. Enjoy your spring break... be safe and get rested. Take care.
Mary
