Kindergartners in Carly Rothschild’s class are honing in on their writing skills by becoming narrators. After several mini-lessons on what it means to be a good writer, kindergartners selected a piece of writing to publish. Like good writers, they went back and edited their stories to apply their learning about how complete sentences are different from a label or one word. After editing is complete, students will publish their pieces complete with colorful illustrations and a cover page. Next week, they will read their stories to their fourth grade buddies.
