Editor's Notes
- Make sure students have completed the absorb and the do activities on the blog before viewing these activities.
- Choice 1: Who am I cards are great for learning definitions and really understanding what the students are reading. They have to match based on the information on the cards.
- Preparing materials and giving lessons is a lot of fun for the children.
- Have students type or write the cards.
- If printing from a computer, two sets can be printed, one for a control and the other to cut apart.
- The puzzle maps are a favorite in the classroom. This gives the students a new purpose for tracing them.
- The children love to hang their artwork in the classroom.
- This can be in the form of an essay or a script for a play (like the Saguaro Story).
