Writers' Workshop

This week we began Writers' Workshop! During the first trimester, we will be learning about Small Moment (narrative) writing. We will be working on choosing a small moment (a thing that happened to us or a thing that we have done) and writing all about it. We will also work on using capital letters and punctuation in our writing. Today, the students chose a small moment from their life to write about. Some of the topics were the following: holding a baby alligator at a zoo, falling down and getting hurt, and going down a water slide at a water park. The first graders worked really hard on their writing and I look forward to reading the pieces of writing that they create this trimester.
