like a pirate



Arrrrrr. This morning I was working with my RtI (Response to Intervention) group for language arts development. We were working on letter identification for t, n, and r. When we got to the r, one of my kinders said, "Arrrrrr. Like a pirate." This made my day, and it was just after 8AM. I love how inventive some of my students are and that he was able to make this connection. It worked for him, and by sharing his thoughts with the group, they all picked up on Arrrrrr as well. 

Now, if only he didn't want to call every letter Arrrr now... But, I suppose we all have to start somewhere. It doesn't hurt that the students in this group were trying to make "pirate" faces as well when they were saying Arrrr. Love it!
