HOT - A high interest word


One of the children talked about the OHP light being hot. The word HOT was written on a card. He thought the word was NO because that's the word we write the most - for NO breaking.

He was soon saying HOT when he looked at the word. He carried the card around with him and propped it up against the magnifying viewer. 

A high interest word for a child interested in science and all things hot.

Yarn Trap

The yarn was used to make a trap.  It was tied to a picture frame and a basket. Each was positioned on shelves across from one another.  The children had to go "under" the trap to get to the carpet for whole class time. There was a lot of sharing of ideas, problem solving, and use of the positional language "over" and "under" and "around".
