"Slowly, Slowly, Slowly," Said the Sloth

"Slowly, Slowly, Slowly," Said the Sloth | Eric Carle

pick

Slowly, Slowly, Slowly, said the Sloth by Eric Carle is a perfect read aloud for young children. It also provides repetitive words that the children can read along with you when it comes to that part. The sloth meets other creatures throughout the story and shows the importance of rest. A lesson plan for this story can be found at https://www.scholastic.com/teachers/lesson-plans/teaching-content/slowly-slowly-...

BRaulerson A UDL Guideline I would use for this story is promote expectations and beliefs that optimize motivation. This story will discuss importance of rest which could optimize motivation for the kids. The ESOL Strategy I would use is using direct instruction. Modeling some of the words and actions from the story while reading and explaining the sloth‘s reactions could definitely help the learners comprehension. #UCFLAE3414F19 4y

DrSpalding Wonderful book selection and author! Excellent job aligning universal design and English learner strategies. Direct instruction works perfectly with your teaching strategy of read aloud. 4y

The lovely @CarolynM reminded me I hadn‘t posted a kitty update in a while!!! The integration continues. They‘re still segregated but Puff ⬆️ is significantly calmer. They‘ve even gone so far as to play with each other underneath the screen (for a minute or so) but I am counting it!. Dash had a bath today to wash off the last pheromones, boarding grime & illness smells. Cat = visibly happier. Humans = slightly perforated. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Gissy Trying to stay at home but today a cousin and a friend, both females are doing their first half ironman event. I don't want to go since it a pretty hot day but on the other hand I feel I need to go to support them. So here I'm preparing myself to go there 6y

Part terrified, part vampire (kitty integration going slowly). None of the books I have picked up have really worked for me today, especially stuck between a terrified kitty (Puff above) & one trying to figure out what happened to his world (Sun! Beds! A scratching post! He has his own toys!). He‘s also a little stinky so we‘re also trying to figure that one out as well... they‘re still segregated but it‘s only Day 4 so 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks And that‘s why I‘m scared of cats!! 🙀🙀 6y

GlassAsDiamonds @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks she‘s a sweetheart (when she‘s not terrified) but definitely her own kitty! I may be biased, she was a bottle baby when we rescued her so I‘ll always be deeply in love. 6y

GlassAsDiamonds @rubyslippersreads she was even more@peeved when I laughed at her but.. I agree!!! 😂😂😂 @Tiffy_Reads : in which case, channel your inner Puff and go nap in a hammock! 😊😊😊 6y

Just barely moving along over here. Switching gears from an audiobook to a physical book 📖 I‘m being diligent about posting my hours since it‘s inevitable that I‘ll hit “Reset” on accident at least once 😆
