The last few days we have been taking about the Mayflower, the Pilgrims and Native Americans. We sequenced the pictures and then wrote about each one. Their writing is improving so much! I wrote first, next, then, and last on the board. Some students used their resources (posters in the room, word wall, Eric) to spell their words. 
Our poetry journals are a great way to learn more information and work on how illustrators and auteurs work together to make the story(poem) complete.
We also compared and sorted toys, clothing, transportation, and cooking from long ago and today.
