This Morning!!!!

This morning Dr. Luongo gave us the option to team teach and I thought that this would work out great for Elizabeth and myself. Both of us were scheduled to do our lesson plans on the same day so this is a great opportunity for us to not only to learn how we work together but to be able to do more work because we can rely on each other.
I usually don't warm up to working wit others but this may allow for me to break out of my shell. I have many ideas for this lesson plan and I am looking forward to presenting this to the classroom.

This Morning though... Elizabeth and I will take one last shot at recording our story over the podcast. After we are finished, we will start working on our lesson plan and begin to get all the information that we need to do this beautifully.

5 Questions

Are you my mother? By P.D Eastman

1) By hearing the name of the book and looking at the cover, what do you think this book is about?
2)Why do you think was the reason baby bird did not wait for his mother to come back?
3)What is the name of the animal that made the loud SNORT noise on page 49?
4) If you were baby bird how would you feel if you couldn't find your mommy or daddy?
5)At the end of the book, baby bird tells his mother all the animals that he asked if they were his mother. What are some other animals that baby bird could have ran into that wasn't listed in the book?

I think the questions that I posted up are well thought out. It requires for the student to use different methods to come up with the answers. For some the child can easily look in the book and get the answers, for some they may need to look online, and for some they have to use their imaginations and minds to come up with creative yet logical answers to the questions.

Very much excited about doing a lesson plan on this...

Want to listen???

The computers in my school are very old and I am having some trouble linking my podcast to my blog. The computer also shut down 2 times while I was using it and was signed on. As frustrating as that was, I was able to post the link up for you guys so you can take a listen to it.

Listen to what Elizabeth and I said...
