Teaching star students: Classroom Crime Scene
http://teachingstarstudents.blogspot.com/2012/10/classroom-crime-scene.html
Wednesday, October 10, 2012. I am super excited about the lessons on inferring that I taught my 5th graders today! It is so much fun when we can do something different that really gets the kids thinking. Above is what my 5th graders found when they came to class in the afternoon. I walked them to class and when we reached the door they all started asking questions, most asked if someone had died. LOL! When we looked closer we saw the magazine was a gaming magazine and that the receipt was from Game Stop&...

Saturday, October 27, 2012. Inferencing Lessons - 4th Grade. We have had lots of fun learning about inferencing. Each day for two weeks we practiced inferring with stories, videos and real items. To start our lesson we watched a great pod cast from a class on inferencing. Check it out! After watching the video my 4th grade students sorted through my trash. Yep, trash! What is the setting? As you watch the video you will see many other questions you can ask. Day 3, 4 and 5. I only used the cartoon pages.

Tuesday, June 11, 2013. Key West Labor Day Hurricane. This year my students read the book, Blown Away. By Joan Hiatt Harlow. This is a wonderful book that tells the story of the 1935 hurricane that hit on Labor Day 1935. The students and myself enjoyed this book, it is a page turner. For the newspaper students included:. Cover story (factual information about hurricane). How to help victims or how to prepare for hurricane. I love how the newspapers turned out! June 12, 2013 at 8:10 AM. Inferencing Lesson...
