Bears vs Gold E. Locks

Suspense filled the air. 
The 4th graders were going to court. 

Case: The Bears vs. Gold E. Locks

The Bear family is unhappy that a young girl broke into their house, used their things, and slept in their beds. Gold E. Locks protests that the door was open, and combined with the delicious smell of porridge floating out the door, was clearly an invitation to come in. Besides, she wanted to figure out the porridge recipe and give it to her dear mother!

What a fun day in 4th grade this was. My students took on all the roles in a court room and acted out a readers' theater to help them learn about the purpose of court and what the different people in a court room do.

Being sworn in

The questioning begins!

The wanted to know if we were going to do the courtroom everyday. So cute. 

....

Things are officially getting very hot here. No rain, lots of wind, and dust, dust, and more dust. 

Thank you for your continued pray and support as I teach my 4th graders! 

Much love,
Laura
