During our Reading Workshop time one of the things we do is work with words which we "lovingly" refer to as word work. It's the time of the day when children work with manipulatives, examine word parts, and get to better understand how words work. This weekend while I was out and about I picked up some Play-Doh and we spent a part of our morning getting our hands busy and creating words. At only about fifty cents a container you get to hear kids say some incredible things like, "This is so cool!" or "Can we do this again!"We also passed out our Word Ring cards today so you'll find them in your child's bookbag tonight. Make sure you go over the words often and if you're out and about a tub of Play-Doh might work for you like it did for us.
