Day 3: Buddy Check

Letter Review Teacher reviews proper formation of three weekly SMART Notebook letters using the associated language prompts. Students articulate the language prompts and practice writing the letters on half sheets of handwriting paper. Teacher dictates all spelling words and students write them on the back of the handwriting paper. Build Word Students check each word with their finger by Fluency saying the word slowly to hear the sounds in the word. Display the words for students to check/correct. Spelling Teacher reviews the spelling strategy on the Strategy anchor chart. Assign spelling buddies. Using the list of words on the back of his handwriting writing paper, one buddy dictates the words to his partner. The partner writes the given words on the Buddy Check paper and then gives the paper to his buddy. The buddy checks the work and indicates with a checkmark those words spelled correctly. Words without a check are given a second Buddy Check attempt in column 2. The spelling buddy checks the words again. Any words misspelled are written correctly in the 3rd column. The child then highlights parts to remember and makes any words spelled incorrectly (words written in column 2 or 3) with magnetic or foam letters. Buddies switch roles and repeat. When students finish, they may play a spelling game. Student Practice 12:30 - 2:00

If students have indoor recess, someone will relieve you for duty in our room. Students may play a game from the tall cabinet, play with treasure box items, draw, color, read, etc. At 2:45, all items must be put away quickly and quietly. For outdoor recess, students will bundle up and you will walk them down the hall in front of the office and to the right and then out the doors. You will pick them up at 2:45 outside.
