Question Writing!

We have been working on question writing in our classroom, and my kiddos have done a super job! I wanted to take it to the next level and try something different. Little did I know this was going to be a HUGE HIT in our classroom! They had so much fun with this! I was so impressed with the questions they wrote AND the answers! Some of them were too cute and some were pretty clever as well!

My kids begged me to do this again, so the next day we did magazine cut outs! Check out these awesome pictures!




I created a pack out of these prompts which includes even more! 

Included:

Anchor Charts with Question Words
Question Mark Poster
16 Question Word Cards
Asking/Telling Sentence Cards
Turn a sentence into a question worksheet
Draw a picture/ask a question
Draw a picture/ask a question/find a friend to answer
Magazine cut out/ask a question/find a friend to answer
Drawing: Question, Statement, Exclamation
Magazine Cutout: Question, Statement, Exclamation

St. Patrick's Day FREEBIE!

I was making some word problems for my kiddos tomorrow and feeling pretty generous, so I thought I'd turn it into a freebie for ya'll!


My plan is to have them glue these in their math journals and have them solve the problems together in small group! I have differentiated word problems too for the varying levels of kids in my class!

Winter Writing and Story FREEBIE!

Happy day after Christmas! I hope that everyone got what they wanted and are finally relaxing!! (Which is something I should probably do too!) But, I've officially decided that this is the time catch up on EVERYTHING that is on my to-do list!

Which means, time to prepare for all of our fun winter stuff!!

I created this winter writing packet:


Included:
“Snow” acrostic
“Winter” acrostic
How many words can you make with the word: winter
How many words can you make with the word: snowman
How many words can you make with the word: snowball
How many words can you make with the word: hot chocolate
How many words can you make with the word: mittens
My Little Snowman (create a snowman) (2 different versions)
Winter Word Picture Cards
Write the room record sheet
All About My Snowman Fill in the blank
Senses Writing: In the winter, I (see, hear, smell, taste, feel)
How to build the perfect snowman:
Blank Paper
First, Next, Last
First, Next, Last (with pictures).
Winter Mad Libs! Fill in the parts of speech and then fill in the blanks for a funny story!
I have provided two options for each of the following writing prompts (large lines and smaller lines)
“All About My Snowman”
“You built a snowman and all of a sudden it grows legs, what happens next?”
“A penguin escaped from the zoo and is now in your classroom. Write a story about what happens”
“If I were a snowflake”
“In the winter, I see…” (with blank picture space)
“I wish it snowed...” (with blank picture space)
“When it’s cold outside I like to...”
“My favorite part of winter"



But I wanted to give ya'll a little freebie to start off your new year right! We did this with Christmas stories before winter break and the kids LOVED it! We then broke up into two groups and made up our stories and then shared them. They were amazed at how different a story is with just a few different words!! I hope your kiddos enjoy it as much as mine did!
