The day after the Superbowl was a little slow going! That game lasted later than most little first graders should have been up, but I understand that it was an event and knew that many of them were out with their families watching the game. As Monday went on, we were on the struggle bus to get going and focus. At the last minute I changed my plans and rather than doing a pocket chart sort, I created a "Read the Room" to introduce "or" and "ore" words. Many of us have probably done Read the Room or Write the Room activities. My firsties have been accustomed to doing these for word practice, math facts, or problem solving. Plus, seeing them use their clipboards and being so involved is cute to watch too!
So with that said, I knew they enjoyed this, so I had to do something that would get them up and moving, but of course, also making sure they were learning at the same time! Adding a little movement helped! They were engaged and did well at reading the words found around the room!
