It all started by me making a comment at lunch about our first day...4 minutes. The 1st grade teacher said, "what?! my kids are up to 10 minutes!" So I told my class that if 1st graders could do 10, surely 3rd graders could do more than that!" Well today, when they reached 12, they wanted to make sure I checked with 1st grade to see where there were. So at lunch, I did. Well they didn't get to it yesterday, and in the afternoon is when they do Daily 5. So, here I am, teaching, and Mrs. Turner comes in and says, "Uhm, my class has something they'd like to tell you."...in comes all 20+ of her 1st graders to tell my class they read 14 minutes! It was great. The 1st and 3rd graders are so motivated now! It was really cool.<br /><br />I hope you create a class picture like I did. It was a great 1st 1 on 1 conference with my kiddos during Daily 5, and I could tell who liked to write and who didn't by if they chose to write it or if they wanted me to. :)<br /><br />Lindsey<br /><a href="http://missjohnstonsroom.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Journey of a Beginning Teacher</a>Lindsey Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08983512098750488823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8057332220781967243.post-72641504049179157902013-08-23T20:37:57.097-04:002013-08-23T20:37:57.097-04:00Thanks!
