The students started off three weeks ago not even knowing what a tradition was,
and now they are brainstorming all the traditions of each holiday we have
studied. Because the students
picked up on all the highlights of each holiday celebrated so quickly, we
decided to use the holidays to kick off our webbing for writing unit. Each day we web the most important
traditions of each holiday. The
students are expected to come up with four ideas, write their ideas and then
illustrate a detailed drawing to go with their words. So far, they are doing great! Their ideas great, their handwriting looks wonderful and
they are excited to be creating a book to share with their family and
friends!
