A Few Student Pattern Books

Pattern Books are a huge hit! This past week we began writing pattern books. First, we read several pattern books and we talked about how it was a pattern book. We also created a list of topics we could use in our own pattern books. Then, we wrote a class pattern book. Finally the kids had a go with writing their own pattern books. Below is a few examples, I couldn't get everyone's book in this first post. I will continue to add more posts this coming week with more student made books.

My Dinner

On Sunday I had pizza. On Monday I had Broccoli.

On Tuesday I had...Macaroni and cheese. On Wednesday I had Burgers.

On Thursday I had Celery. On Friday I had... pasta meat balls.

On Saturday I had... no dinner!

This is a great example of a student applying what we have been reading and talking about. The big book we read every day this week had ellipses and it was great seeing her put those in her book.

A octopus is a dangerous animal.

A shark is a dangerous animal. A jellyfish is a dangerous animal.

A stingray is a dangerous animal. A lionfish is a dangerous animal.

A sea turtle is a nice animal. A dolphin is a nice animal.

The next pictures are one shot of several different books by different students. They weren't complete yet.

A dolphin can have baby dolphin. A dolphin can flip.

A cow is at the barn. A dog is at the barn.



Aren't those great! I can't wait for more of them to finish so that I can share them!
