Another notebook strategy I introduce to my students is writing down any "I wonder" questions that they might have. My I wonder questions today included:
I wonder who cleans up after Clifford the Big Red Dog?
I wonder how you tile a back splash?
I wonder if my dogs like the taste of bones, or if they just like to chew?
I wonder what underwear was like a long time ago?
Now, obviously some of these questions I can research and answer, and some of them just make me giggle and wonder.
The underwear question is a hoot! Interesting about the bone thing. My dog chews anything - including dirty cat litter. Blech! So it must be a chew thing. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's short, but sweet. I love that! Great post.
ReplyDeleteKids love to pose wonder questions. I wonder where does the armadillo think he is going when he walks on an overpass of an interstate?
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha! I would hate to be the one to clean up Clifford's poo. Love this Stacy. Thanks for the great idea!
ReplyDeleteYou beat me to it! I had thought about doing an "I wonder" list. I still may, but I just LOVE your list. Definitely things I wonder about, if I had thought of them! : )
ReplyDeleteI wonder which one makes you giggle the most.
ReplyDeleteDid you share these with your students as a mentor notebook entry? If so, I bet there was a lot of laughter in your room!
