Wallwisher on Inferring

My Grade 1 students completed this Wallwisher activity as one of their literacy centres. This Wallwisher is based on one of the pictures in the Grade 1 Mondo Kit. Students had to infer what the different characters in the picture were thinking. They were encouraged to also explain why they thought this, as including evidence is important for a good inference. I did not correct any of the spelling or grammar in these posts, so you will see some mistakes, but using phonetics, you should be able to tell what the students are thinking.

Have you used Wallwisher for an inferring activity before? Any ideas that you would be willing to share would be great! Thanks!

Videos Of Community Helpers

These are three videos that my students created based on their research of community helpers.  These students controlled the webcam as the other students watched their video being produced on the SMART Board.  The rest of the class will be producing their videos next week.
 
Have a great weekend!
