In my class we do a “Photographer of the Day” thing. We don’t call it that, but for the sake of context I will here. One student per day takes two pictures and then blogs about them. We do this every day (thanks in no small part to WAYNE LEONARD). Yesterday’s blog was particularly winning because it exemplifies how I want my kids to feel at school. See below:
Today I took two pictures: one of our daily count and the other of our class doing math. First I’m doing our class doing math. I took that picture because math is my favorite subject and it’s interesting for me. Now I’m doing my second picture. It was of our daily count. I really like this picture because it has characters we don’t really use like the @/at symbol. We don’t really use that symbol for example. Wednesday start@ 185, n+5 or Tuesday start@ 237, n +3. I also like these because they all involve our class. We do the daily count every day and we always do math. It’s always us who do it. But no matter what we always do it together like a family cause we’re a family of Aviators. It’s always fun here.
This guy for the win! Today one of my students used her blog space to celebrate the theme day of another student. She appreciated the risk we took together and used her finite time and space to recognize him. It doesn’t get much better than these kids right here!
Today is ____’s theme day wich is PJ day so I took a picture of Ms. Anderson in her PJ’s.
I also took a picture of my stuffed animal “Lisa” because you could bring a stuffed animal you sleep with.
Happy birthday ______!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
