Today a friend of mine came in and did the cutest lesson from Inspired by Kindergarten.
It is very repetitive, and even though I have 2nd graders, they loved the 'poetry' part of it. After sampling some cereal, they all voted on their favorite cereal....and.......drum roll please......Rice Krispies won!
My friend Michelle did a post at Teach123 a few days ago about virtual fieldtrips...so I thought I would share what I found. I found this really cool website about the solar system that I used to take my kids on a 'field trip'. One of my kids said I was must like Ms. Frizzle. LOL!!! We 'traveled' through the solar system as the captain <me!> gave them a tour of everything from the hot sun to the dwarf planet, Pluto. Let me tell you....as you travel through the asteroid belt, be sure to tighten your seat belt and ALWAYS lean into the turns. If you want to take your kids on that same field trip, go here or here! This link also has information about the asteroid belt, which is the 'funnest' part of the whole field trip, as one of my students reported.
