Character Comments

Mrs. Walker's first grade class asked if we could help them with their character posts...Of course we want to help!
This past week her class discussed the importance of learning characters well in a story.  After reading a collection of books, each student in Mrs. Walker's class wrote a post describing one of the characters in a story.  In the meantime, I read the same books to our class.  After a class discussion on the different characters, my students then went into Mrs. Walker's class blog, read their buddy's post and commented back explaining which character they thought they were describing and why. 
Just love the collaboration between classes especially when we are hundreds of miles away!
