here are two things that made me happy today:
We were reading a poem called "Silver". I asked why they thought the word "silver" was repeated multiple times throughout the poem. No one had an answer. I asked what might happen if we replaced the word "silver" with "grey". "Icks" and "yucks" and other groans spread around the room. I think they really got it.
Kiddos loved cutting up magazines today. And no one gawked or made innapropriate jokes at the National Geographic photos. Every single one of them was engaged! If alliteration is a test question, they better get it.
