We have officially taken off with our writing program. Each morning we meet as a class on the floor for our mini-lesson and then the kids hear the three magic words...Off You Go! They quickly hurry back to their spot to start writing. We are not only writing stories in first grade - we are authors and illustrators writing BOOKS! Some of us like to write in a chair, others prefer the floor, and some even write best in the tub. No matter where they are working, the children are writing...lots!
Ask your child to share with you the steps we are using.
1. Touch
2. Tell
3. Sketch
4. Write
If you could be a fly on the wall, this is what your would see....
