At the beginning of year, I sat with our 1st grade teachers in a meeting with the reading specialist assigned to our campus as she talked with them about reading and writing. One of the things she mentioned was noticing how authors used different things in their writing and then encouraging the students to try it in their own writing. I decided that I could do that in the library. I read a few of Mo Willems Elephant and Piggie books to them and we talked about how he used speech bubbles to show what Gerald and Piggie were thinking and saying. Then they went to a template I had uploaded in Seesaw for them. We looked at the pictures in the frames and talked about how the speech bubbles.
Students then went to work adding in the dialog.
Most of the students recreated the banana joke from the story We Are In A Book like this student did
However, one clever little guy really understood the idea of a joke and came up with this (his teacher did help him with spelling). The video is only 13 seconds long, he doesn't press stop though which is why it keeps recording. Oops.
Don't you love that??
