Week 11

I am in a 3rd grade classroom, we have been working a lot with aspects of comprehension. One of the lessons that I taught was on categorizing. The students had to read a pretty boring story on artifacts from the past and categorize them. To liven things up a bit, I found some modern day items online and organized them into a powerpoint to show them and had them categorize them. Then they wrote a short response paper to the categories that they chose. Having the powerpoint, really helped the students become engaged in what could have been a horribly boring lesson. They really enjoyed it!!!
