A Fabulous Friday!

Miss Lubs Class: Today the kids made large name tags in braille! Thanks to Miss Lubs, who brought in puffy glitter glue – the students were able to write their name in Braille and then use the glue to make raised letters.  A terrific culminating activity for our book!  Tutto va bene!

4th Grade Girls Groups: Today we read the book “I am Unique” and the girls came up with a trait, characteristic or interest for each letter of the alphabet that described them. We then made word cloud posters with our unique words through a cool computer site called Word It Out….we will finish the project next week.

Social Thinking Group: Another lively group…..but so focused!!!  Today the we “Bamboozled” our feelings -  a game that fits well with our  “Big Three” – Vocal Tone, Body Language and Facial Expression. The boys took turns expressing how they were feeling. Our “What did you say? What did you mean?” phrase today  was: “All of the students at WBSS worked like dogs during the CMTS! This helps our kids understand metaphors and idioms. We also continued reading the new Superflex adventure “Superflex Takes on Glassman and the Team of Unthinkables”  The kids are super excited!!!!   Today we identified problems as small, medium or big problems and then identified superflexible coping strategies! The meaning of “hidden rules” was also introduced.  Finally, the long awaited key chains were started!

A Fabulous Friday indeed!
