Week 11: The Magic Seed

On my walk this morning, a rather small squirrel came up to me. He was holding a strange looking nut in his paw. Imagine my surprise when he looked up at me and squeaked, "Behold, the magic seed! Plant it wherever you wish. It will grow into anything you fancy!"

I am passing this magic seed on to you. Where will you plant it? What would you like it to grow into?

Week 10: Remarkable Read Alouds!

For this week's response, we are going to try a new, super cool website called Vocaroo! Here's how it works.
 
1) Pick a page or paragraph from a book, a poem or something you have written.
2) Go to Vocaroo.
3) Click on the box that says "Click to Record. "
4) Say your first name.
5) Read your poem, page or paragraph aloud.
6) Click "Send to a Friend" and send your Voacroo to Mrs. Sol at rsol@wava.org

If you don't have a microphone, you can leave a comment about another student's read aloud. Just remember to be positive and kind.

As soon as I receive it, I will add your Vocaroo to the blog with your name, so others can listen. As a sample, the first comment will be MY read aloud. Please respond before Friday, November 12!
