First Grade

Did a modified Kente lesson with my Choice firsts. They did pretty well with it. With the amount of difficulty the "over under" gave many seconds, I thought I would modify for firsts so we focused more on the colors and patterns and did a collage in the long skinny Kente shape. I've got to get the pics off my camera! I had a whole table of artists making extra long Kente and working together to make their patterns. Awesome.

It's been two weeks, though- maybe three?- since I've seen these kids, and it showed at clean up. maybe 5 kids fooling around and sharing and not cleaning made clean up take too long so we didn't have time to share. Which this group really likes to do- so we'll talk about that at our meeting next week. Better write myself a note....
