The morning message is one of my favorite teaching tools. It is a greeting and an invitation, a way to share information and make connections. When you visit our classroom, you may see bits of our morning message displayed, often connecting to a teaching point or big idea. As our morning message grows with us, children take on the important job of circling "noticings"- letters, words, numbers, punctuation, blends, digraphs and more! They begin filling in the date and missing parts. They engage with the morning message in different and powerful ways.
This week we used the morning message to represent being in school for five days. We also used the message as an invitation to draw different lines on a sticky note. These lines will now live in our art space as inspiration for future line drawings!
We have been in school for 5 days.
What kind of line can you draw?
