This is my latest journal assignment for the kids…
Making Predictions
I have this sitting on the stool in front of my room…
Instructions:
1) Touch, feel, lift, etc. the bag
2) Make mental notes about what you feel and form a prediction about what’s inside.
3) Return to your seat and take out your journal or a loose-leaf paper
4) Write a 5 sentence (or more) paragraph in your journal about your predictions. Be specific. Explain what you think the item(s) are and WHY you think that. Tell which senses you used to make your predictions.
5) Turn in your journal.
6) At 9:20 we will open the bag and see if you we’re right.
