Some of this mornings activities...

We started our literacy groups, which included spelling doodles, UpWords, read with the teacher, comprehension and prompted writing. They were a little thrown together, but they worked, and it gave me a chance to listen to come of my students read.

At what age do we stop encouraging play? it's been interesting across my career going from Kindergarten to Year 10 and everything in between. As the years progress, the time for play disappears - but there are ways you can incorporate it, even in the high school classroom.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love having a variety of card and board games in my classrooms and using these during literacy and maths groups, as well for my fast finishers and those wet weather days. Games like Scrabble, UpWords, Scattegories, Uno & Jenga provide so many opportunities for related learning, but also for building social skills.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How do you incorporate play? Share your tips below.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I've been working on these weekly spelling sheets for a few days now. I wanted to not only incorporate the LSSCWC method but also get students thinking about spelling, grammar, and vocabulary outside of school.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have incorporated phonological and visual, morphemic, and etymological spelling words into the weekly list. It also comes with 4 differentiated options.

Should we be using a proforma to teach our student

Should we be using a proforma to teach our students how to structure paragraphs and essays?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's an interesting debate, and one I've been reading about. It's important to provide students who are learning how to construct good paragraphs and essays with the desired structure. Structures such as PEEL also provide those students who struggle with writing and literacy skills with a proforma and guide to structure their writing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, we must also not constrict our students and force them to lose their creativity when it comes to writing.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As teachers, we also don't want to be reading essay upon essay that all sound and read the same. We need to encourage students to be aware of the desired structure, but also write with natural flow, rhythm, and creativity.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How do you teach paragraph or essay writing? Do you use the PEEL method? Let me know below.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
