In our writing workshop kids are writing a narrative about their experiences in the play and I just had to share this with you.
Theo read his writing and said that as he was walking down the aisle of the cafeteria he could not stop smiling. He tried but he couldn't. A chorus of other kids chimed in and said the same thing happened to them! One girl said that she tried to cover her teeth with her lips but they "kept popping out" because of her smile. Many others agreed that they felt the same way.
Just one example why this is one of my favorite days in third grade. These guys know that they accomplished something yesterday and they are filled with pride. I get to take it all in and share it with them. What a job!
Yours,
Valerie
