Preparing our notebooks for writing workshop! These will hold all of our stories and inspiring ideas this year so we take time to personalize them at the start of the year!

In the afternoon we got to learn about the entire prairie habitat @StoryCoCons with Ms. Bekah. Our awesome chaperones led the students through stations and we ended the day with a hike! #NevadaCubPride
Ms. Jess with @StoryCoCons had the kids try to hide in the prairie like insects would. Then she was the bird and tried to spot them. Last she had the grown-ups go be the insects and then let the kids be the birds and come find us! #NevadaCubPride
The fabulous Britt from Dog-Eared Books helped us kick off our book rec wall! Using “shelf talker” cards from the store, she taught us how to share key ideas about a book without spoilers and we wrote some shelf talker cards that may be featured at the bookstore! #NevadaCubPride
Today we learned about the writing process by sculpting with Play-Doh. After playing with ideas, drafting, revising, and editing, students had the chance to take a gallery walk to view our final products. #NevadaCubPride
2nd try at the paper chain challenge: Teams adjusted their strategies and made improvements. The best part: instead of being worried about whose chain was the longest, they were discussing how huge the chain would be if we connected each part as one big team! #NevadaCubPride
