The Best Part of Me Project

We read the book "The Best Part of Me" in the PM class today. It is a book about celebrating what we like best about ourselves written by young children. After reading the book, I asked the children what their best part was and why, and recorded their responses. All the children had something to say, and were able to explain why they chose a particular part. Here are some of the children's responses that I recorded.


F- "lips- I can wear lipstick, and it helps me eat".
E- "neck- Food goes down".
R- "feet-It helps me run".

I will be taking pictures of the kids and they will be invited to write about their best part.
AM class will also be invited to participate.

 

The Paper Bag Princess Movie

We started to watch The Paper Bag Princess movie in class today, and we will finish watching the movie tomorrow. We would like to compare the similarities and differences between the book and the movie. I am posting the video (2 parts, about 10 minutes each) for you to watch at home if you would like to!
