Learning Notebooks

The children have been very excited to work in their Learning Notebooks.  They are excited to have a place to record their ideas and then share them with each other.  This week during one of our literacy stations we were responsible for retelling the story and then they drew the characters and labeled them in thier notebooks.  We have also written lists, as well as recorded what we observed with the weather during calendar.  We have been working on adding details to our writing and making our illustrations colorful!  Check out some of the work in our kiddos Learning Notebooks above!  We are finding that these really help children see the many purposes of writing as well as improve their ability to communicate through writing.
