Yesterday, Taite brought home her 1st 9 weeks journal from school. When I was teaching, journals were one of my favorite teaching tools. They allow kids to use creative thinking and they allow kids to practice writing skills they have learned.
She had a handful of entries in the journal, but Lewis & I really liked two of them in particular that I wanted to share:
The first was an entry that the kids did when they returned to school after Ike. They were supposed to draw/write something about the hurricane.
Here is Taite's interpretation:
"The hurricane"
She said the "clouds" above show fallen trees, broken traffic lights and lost dogs.
The 2nd entry I wanted to share is one she did recently about her Halloween costume. (See if you can read what she wrote!):
"Taite's costume is a fairy"

Love them!
I remember the fun we'd have trying to decipher the kids' writings when I was doing ARI. Phonetic spellings are so cute.
I remember trying to sound out those phoentic spellings in my kids' writings! I love Taite's pictures and captions!
