The Little Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie

A wonderful kindergarten teacher, Diane, who taught the Shared Reading Lesson for, The Little Old Lady Who Swallowed A Pie  http://www.amazon.com/Know-Swallowed-Picture-Puffin-Books/dp/0140565957/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1321819865&sr=1-7       , last week sent my pictures!  

She found the puppet and play food for the retelling part. The students were so excited!   

This is the Little Old Lady!  http://www.amazon.com/There-Was-Old-Lady-Storysack/dp/0859538354/ref=sr_1_cc_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1321819971&sr=1-3-catcorr    She found her own food items since the Old Lady swallows different items in this story. 

The students made their own Old Lady with a baggy as a tummy to hold their food on day five.  The students retell the story with their own Old Lady.

We used the Houghton Mifflin chart to reinforce sequencing chart.  The children practiced retelling the story using the sequence skill in the pocket chart, and on their own papers and their own little pieces. 

(Diane took this teaching opportunity in science to include a lesson on food groups, notice the sort in the pocket chart)

Students had several opportunities to retell the story using the puppet after the teacher modeled.  Each student also made their own puppet.

I wrote up the Shared Reading lessons on Writing Every Day Works.

The materials are from the site:  http://lilcountrykindergarten.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-know-old-lady-who-swallowed-pie.html

This is NOT ALL that Diane did.  This is just the wonderful extra that http://candokinders.blogspot.com/2011/11/youve-gotta-see-this.html and  http://lilcountrykindergarten.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-know-old-lady-who-swallowed-pie.html did not write about yet. 

Enjoy! Deb

 

Phonemic Awareness/Phonics

The teacher reinforces rhyming by using pictures.  The teacher helps students to think of words that start with the letter, “g” today.  Each day the PA changes.  Each day the letter changes.

Mrs. McNosh Hangs Up The Wash (Shared Reading)

This is the cover of Mrs. McNosh Hangs Up the Wash.

Day 1

Before Reading – Building Vocabulary

Teacher holds up an item, says the item name, the children repeat the item’s name, and then the item is said in a kid friendly definition sentence.

Some of the items that Mrs. McNosh hung up were silly items.   

Some of the items that Mrs. McNosh hung up were regular items.

Today your job while listening is to notice what items Mrs. McNosh hangs up. 

During Reading – Teacher reads the Big Book pointing to the words one-on-one. 

After Reading – Teacher leads the discussion re: question, “What items did Mrs. McNosh hang up?”

  This is the picture of the yes/no sort

Day 2

Before Reading – What items did Mrs. McNosh hang up? 

Today while you read, notice the items that Mrs. McNosh hung up?

During Reading – Read story and notice what items were hung up (not in order today).

After Reading – Sort.  Yes, this item is hung up; No, this item is not hung up.  For example, Mrs. McNosh did not hang up a cat.  Another example, Mrs. McNosh did hang up an armchair.

    

Two pictures show items that Mrs. McNosh Hangs Up The Wash. 

Day 3

Before Reading – Mrs. McNosh hangs up items on a clothesline.  Show the items mixed up in a pocket chart. 

Today your job is notice the items in order.

Day 4

Before Reading – practice letter/sound match with the items in the Mrs. McNosh Hangs Up the Wash.  Teacher gives a few examples.  Children have a sheet of paper with 9 letters on it.  Teacher says a word and the children repeat the word, say the letter, say the sound.
