==__Kid Writing__ - [|Eileen Feldgus and Isabell Cardonick] - Each day the students draw a picture in his or her journal. An adult sits with each child and helps him or her write a story about their illustration. The students write all of the sounds they hear in a word (called Kid Writing). When the student is finished writing the adult will show the student the correct "adult" spelling. This allows for individual mini-lessons based on the needs to the student.==

==__Whole Group Math Lesson__ - During whole group instruction new concepts are introduced and practiced. This is a time when I can make anecdotal records and assess a child's understand of a concept. This allows me to plan for both small and whole group lessons.==
