Snowman Glyphs with our 4th Grade partners

This week we continued our work with procedural text. For the past couple weeks we have worked on How to Get Dressed in the WInter. This week we worked on our procedural writing on the steps to make a snowman. Our 4th grade partners came down and we created snowman glyphs with them. When creating the glyphs on the Drawing Pad app on the iPad the students were suppose to think about the procedural writing they have been working on, how to build a snow person and create the snow person on the iPad the same way. Snow on the ground first then, large snowball, then medium snowball then small snowball for the head. Then the students needed to add details according to the glyph. The last step was to add other details. We shared our class information and graphed our results. We are hoping to have a snow day with our 4th grade partners and build our own snow people based on our procedural writing!

Next Friday, January 31st we will go over all our snow people gylph data and then we will read winter and Valentine books with our 4th grade partners. Our Blanket, Quilt and Afghan Unit will end with all students being invited to bring back in their special blanket or a different one they's like to share, and the stories will be read under the comfort of a blanket on Friday!
