Making the family connection: Discuss: “How do lists help us in our every day life?”
Materials: family learning journals/paper, pencils, colored pencils, and/or crayons. Remind them to open their journals to the next available page and date it. Don’t forget to have them label the top of the page with today’s learning topic/skill.
Today’s literary connection: Holiday Lists. Guided enquiry:As adults, we use lists in our every day organization (shopping, to-do planning, packing/trip preparations, building projects, etc.). Share: Why lists are an important literary skill in which every day life becomes organized. *Practicing listing skills helps all learners with an opportunity to write practical non-fiction for every day life. The slide above provides a variety of holiday “purposeful” practice. Thinking logically and organizing the steps in a logical sequence is a life skill that will lower anxiety… adds structure… and satisfactorily shows accomplishments. Holiday lists can be fun, creative, and so helpful during the hustle and bustle of this month.
Next:Discuss which types of lists would help your family’s holiday? Ask each member to draft a different list (don’t forget to add creative designs).
Inspired Learning: Booked for Success wants to spread our message of hope and compassion. We believe that a single action can make a difference in the lives of our learners, in our community, and that our collective action can greatly impact the future for every learner. Through advocacy, individualized support, and educational activities, our team works tirelessly each day to contribute their part to the successful partnership with our parents/guardians.
