If it’s Sunday
It must be time for
NIBITS FOR NEWBIES!
This week’s theme…
Writing in First Grade
Now… I wish I was PERFECT.
I wish my kiddos were PERFECT.
There are NO Perfect PEOPLE!
NO Perfect KIDDOS.
No Perfect.
Now that we have gone there…how do we get close?
We get BETTER!
Better..Better…Better
( My Mantra )
We write EVERY DAY.
Usually..more than once.
We write about our day in school…things we like…stories we have read..etc.etc.etc.
I try to do a mini-lesson on a strategy.
We change our focus depending on our curriculum.
We do writer’s workshop.
My kids write.
AND they LOVE IT!
HOW?
Give them paper, pencils, markers, colored pencils, etc…
Give them…TIME!
And … LET THEM TALK!
My classroom is NEVER quiet!
Discussion about writing, during writing, and after writing.
TALK, Write, Create!
Are they perfect?
NO.
Is that OK?
YES!
Write ON!
( If you need a starting point)
Here you go! Have FUN!
