It’s not pretty, but this is always such a great lesson! A few years ago, my 5th graders were working on describing settings and the mood of the setting and how that impacts the story, which proved to be a huge challenge for them. To reinforce the idea, we sorted these words by physical characteristics of a setting (which they were most familiar with) and the mood evoked by or the emotion attached to a setting. We ended up with this huge list (with some that they agreed could be used in both contexts) over and over as we wrote about different settings. (Teaching Tip: I gave all of these words to my students and told them that they could be sorted into two categories. They had to figure out the categories and sort them accordingly. It was tough, but they persevered and finally came up with the descriptors you see on the chart. I wouldn’t recommend doing it this way with anyone but your highest groups. Instead, I’d recommend telling them the two categories and having them sort.) #anchorcharts #literacy

My teacher dreams came true this week. 🌍 🎄 I have never taught Christmas Around the World in my classroom for a variety of reasons, but since I was homeschooling this year, it just HAD to happen! We read tons of books, watched so many videos, read some informational texts, did ALL the crafts, played games, made so much traditional food, and we all (myself included) have a new respect for traditions, holidays, and cultures around the world. Swipe to see a sampling of all the books we read. Which one is YOUR favorite? #christmasbooks #christmasaroundtheworld #kidschristmas
