Unit of inquiry:
Today students watched a video called if the world were a village. We talked about how all communities have different people who bring all different nationalities, languages, food, currency, religions, and customs. If you would like to watch the video please visit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrcOdLYBIw0
We then talked about If our classroom was a village and we talked about differences in our classroom such as religion, age, gender, languages, and customs. We then graphed these in different charts:

Language:

For today's lesson we discussed what a good sentence has
1. A capital at the beginning
2. Punctuation at the end
3. A noun/adjective/verb
4. detail

We looked at a sentence together on the board and discussed ways we could fix it and make it better. Grade 1s were then sent back to their desks to write a journal about why they are excited for Grade 1. Students needed to have all of the above to ensure they had a successful journal entry.

Grade 2s were each given a baggy full of words that when put in proper sequence made a good sentence as described above take a look:
