Making the family connection: Discuss: “Sleigh Ride Adlib?”
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: Family Sleigh Ride. Guided enquiry:Ask a learner to be the scribe for today’s story. As their guide, read the adlib above, including the blanks (to be filled in later). Once the story has been re-written, invite someone to make a list of words as they are shared. Next: enjoy this family “story-telling” playtime with words. *Use the “round-robin” method (going around the table participation).
Finally:Encourage everyone to re-draft the family’s Sleigh Ride into their journals. Encourage them to spend time illustrating a picture or border (show the artistic doodles on the slide). Your youngest can retell the story to a family scribe and then create their illustration).
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.
