Time for our Authors to Publish their Work!

During writing, your children have been working very hard on their personal narrative writing pieces. We have studied authors and what good narrative writing includes. Each child picked from their list of ideas and small moment stories, one story that they felt most passionate about. We took that story through the writing process. First, they planned out the people, setting, and events. Then, we started at the beginning and wrote each event long. We crafted our beginnings to have a good lead to reel in our readers. At the end, we looked at a variety of books and found that strong endings include action, talk, or feeling. So, we crafted our endings to do just that! We revised to make sure our writing sounded the way we wanted it to. We even wrote with dialogue and details so our readers would be able to feel like they were present in our stories! Now the class has the option of typing their final pieces, or writing it again on final copy paper. Can't wait for you to see our final products!
