Possessives, puppets and books

Yep, it's almost been a month since my last post (and honestly it doesn't feel like it). Life has been a bit hectic.
Possessives:
I have some students that are able to use possessives in their writing, and some that don't have a clue. I found some 20 cute pictures in PPT, printed them and laminated them. I passed them out to each child. They had to then find 5 different students in the class, mixing girls and boys. When they found a student, they wrote about that student's item (ex: Jake's puppy is very cute.) The sentences were not the best quality, but the focus was on using that apostrophe in the student's name.


Then we have finished up our last hand craft project, hand made puppets:


Then finally they wrote their own stories, here are a few covers they made:



That's it folks!
