Writing Sharing

To end our morning of reading we shared our "Blank Book" writing project.  Mrs. Erickson has started us on a wonderful journey of creating our own books.  Students have had time to work on these books all fall.  She has made blank books for the class to use to create their own writings.  These books are literally blank and students can write their won book.  She initially gave some instruction about the types of books they could write. i.e. nonfiction, how to, a story, personal narrative, series etc.  Today, in small groups, students shared one of their best books.  It was so much fun! 

Then we asked for nominations from students of a book that he/she heard a classmate share he/she thought was really great.  We then asked that nominated person if he/she wanted to share his/her story with the class.  Many students were brave enough to share! 

It was an awesome way to end the morning!  Your child will have his/her blank books to take home today!
