Stella Louella went well, in fact the group was pretty quiet while I told the story. That's another thing - with some books I don't read it as much as tell it. I caught myself doing that today in a second grade class. I am half way through this week (taking a sick day on Friday) doing a Black- Eyed Susan nominee and I am telling the book with the pictures not reading it word for word. This could have something to do with the document camera. Have to think about that.
This post is supposed to be about presenting at MICCA the state wide technology teaching conference. I was to present on how I use technology to create the lessons I make for the autism class. Got the email for presentation submissions today and I'm thinking about it. As in what do I need to include for 45 minutes? Autism students need lots of visuals, and after much of trial and error I figured out a way. A way to at least tell a story to a group and have them respond. Autism teachers write social stories for their students describing what to expect during the school day. I have taken that format and turned it sideways sorta.
Next weeks book is What Happened to Marion's Book
