My new knowledge

I found today to be so full of great ideas. I though Carley's activity is a valuable lesson that I will definitely use with my students. I think after we did it as a class activity where they learn the steps then I can use it as a review or 15-20 minute time filler with synonyms, antonyms, or vocabulary. I am planning on trying the report bag idea we did as well. I think I will try it first with creating it after a unit. I will have the students create their own character bag and then have the students guess who it is. I will have the students put them on their desk and have the class move from one to another recording their guesses. The websites Carly showed us were awesome. This is something I will show the children how to use. They love going to the computer or using the spelling Aces we have during writing or free time.
