TODAYÕS
MESSAGE Based on methods from the Responsive Classroom Northeast Foundation for Children Greetings everyone,
We are going ÒFishingÓ today!
Has anyone ever gone fishing before? If not, thatÕs okay because the point of this exercise is
to learn about sharing, active listening and participation. So if you have
not gone fishing before I want you to substitute fishing for another fun
activity that you may have experienced with family and friends.
Think about your attitude at the beginning of your fishing (or other
activity) day. What was it like? Who was with you and what was the best part
of the experience?
Did you catch a fish? If you caught a fish, how did it make you feel?
If you did not catch a fish how did it make you feel?
Did someone else catch a fish? How did that make you feel?
Take a moment to think about a past experience. I will call on two
people to share their fishing stories with the group. Those with different
stories may be asked to share at a later time, so be sure to think about
other similar experiences! Respectfully, Mr. B p.s. – Activity clue: Hello Toss. p.s.s. – Homework: Use pen or pencil to finish your Fish! Philosophy. Always turn your homework in the following day. |
