Thinking Maps Thursday!


 This post will share with you some of the things we are thinking about in KC.


Shapes 

{Circle Maps}

The kids worked in small groups of 2/3 kids. The paper is 12 by 12. I wanted it to be a manageable size. I plan to put these together into a book.

Draw and Label

Writing Workshop
{Flow Map}


 We had used this thinking map before we wrote our nonfiction personal narrative stories. The boxes have time, order words to help student record what their friend does in a day. 



Chapter Book
{Flow Map}
We are working on making mental images when listening to  Ivy and Bean.  This is a great way to retell what is happening in the story.
