Grinch

And today I asked the question:
“Green Eggs and Ham!” How many times do you hear this phrase?

I introduced the sound only. I didn’t show the text. Only listening for about five minutes. During the story, I went to the backside of the classroom. After the last phrase, I went back to the front, but I didn’t call upon students. I didn’t want to make it like a test.

After the class, a student came to me and said, “eleven times.” I said to her, “you have good ears.” I’m sure some other students did listen to the sound and counted eleven. But I’m also sure there were students who didn’t listen to. This is today’s classroom.
