SOL Spotlight 1

During March, I participated in the Slice of Life Classroom Challenge with a few of my students. I had four girls finish the whole month with me and promptly roll on into April (even with knowing that there wouldn't be any prizes this time.)

I was very pleased with the way it turned out and was even told by their parents at conferences that they too enjoyed the project and reading their child's writing. The girls were always excited each morning to get their stickers and read over each other's writing. Success!

I asked each girl to pick their favorite slice and this week I am going to share with you a little slice of their lives. I have changed names to protect the innocent. Also, I have written it EXACTLY as they have written their slice. There were no rules or demands. I did ask them to look over it before they gave it to me, but there may be some mistakes, some of which I will face palm myself because I know I taught them that, but remind myself that this was not the objective of the project. 

I hope that you enjoy these slices as much as I did.

When I was watching full house it made me laugh. It made me laugh because Michelle was pretending to be a boy. It was also funny [because] Michelle was working out with Jesse. She had mini weights and had a leotard on. Then when she was done she showed her "muscles." Michelle is my favorite on full house. Full house is also my favorite show.
