where the students mittens are coming from.

and to be kind back to her. |

E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
1. For students who have a difficult time writing, I will write
it on a sheet of paper and they will copy it.
2. For my students who are not able to think about a kind deed, we
will brainstorm a list as a class.
3. I will also draw lines on the mittens for my students who sometimes
write their words too big. |

in the story. I will ask them what the boys problem was and how his
problem was solved.
