I have been doing this as a morning arrival ritual for years, where children look for today's question and then place their name (magnetized, to stick to our whiteboard) to the response they choose. It is a simple way to build community - to encourage children's interest in and understanding of one another. Also great for pre-literacy, helping them to spell their names!Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08404917167112072640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7403335925917427902.post-19882268676511957922013-05-18T18:44:18.077-04:002013-05-18T18:44:18.077-04:00I have never heard of having a 'question of th...I have never heard of having a 'question of the day', Maureen. What fun for the younger ones. I'll ask my primary teachers if they ever do it. I don't think so. The very premise of our school is asking questions, because of their individual topic studies, but to find out "things" as you've described is different. Thanks for telling all about it!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
